After spending some time in Beijing we headed to the city Xian. The train ride from Beijing to Xian was 14 hours and wasn't nearly as bad, because I upgraded to a sleeper bed. Once we arrived in Xian we got to our very nice hostel. The hostel was setup similar to a hotel and had the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in! Because we were exhausted from the train ride we were lazy most of the day and just rested at the hostel. At night we explored the city and got dinner. Afterwards we went to a light show. There were still a mass of people because it was the last day of their holiday. When we arrived to where the light show was supposed to be located, we couldn't see anything because there were so many people. While we waited for it to start Brittany, Anna, Ashlee and I all stood on a big rock to see over the people. We didn't know we would attract half of China by doing so though. While we were standing up flashes were going off constantly! The Chinese would come stand near us and take pictures and laugh at us. After awhile though a group of policemen walked by and got mad at us. We played dumb so we wouldn't get in trouble. Next thing we know a group of Asians are standing on the same rock we just got kicked off of. We are such trend setters here.
