Xian Adventure





With Mem and Ricky (Mum & Nephew) visiting for a couple of weeks we decided to fly to Xian for a few days, after organising some cheap flights.
A lot colder there I can tell you. But we had a wonderful time. Pollution is terrible. And our cheap hotel was cheap. But warm and comfortable enough.
We hired a car for the day for 240 Yuan and went to see the Warriors, the Emperors Mausoleum, and the Hot Springs.
On the other days we went to the South Gate and walked on the Wall, then took a golf cart to the West gate. We visited the Muslim Quarter where we bought some great wall hangings, and of course the Drum Tower and the Bell Tower. The down side was that my Camera got stolen and I had to use Ricky's Pics for the Blog and Flickr (his pics are good I just would like to have my own)
