Alrighty now, so I am focus and a little more motivated so I am going to finish this out.
Friday night (July 1) – We will catch in overnight train to Beijing
Saturday morning (July 2nd) to Thursday evening (July 7th) – When we arrive in Beijing, our branch President’s driver is going to pick us up from the train station. Thankfully Pres. Lewis was willing enough to let us stay at his home. I am really grateful for that as it really help alleviate the stress of this all. 🙂 All of the days in between (except for Sunday) we will be seeing sights such as the Forbidden city, the Great Wall and others. I hear there is even a literal underground city to tour that was built during the cold war.
Thursday night to Friday morning (July 8th) – Overnight train to Shanghai. This particular train journey will be comparatively shorter than the rest as it is on a new express train; one of the fast in China.
Friday morning to Sunday night (July 10th) – We arrive in the morning in Shanghai and then we will head off to our hostel. To be totally honest, I am not totally sure what the hallmark sights are in Shanghai but I am sure that we will hit some awesome one. Sunday afternoon we will board a MAGLEV train to Shanghai Pudong airport.
For the flight home, well, that deserves a post of it’s own. I will update that one tomorrow.
