More trains

We are on the train again. On the way from Xi'an to Guangzhou. We finally had a splurge and went for the soft sleeper cabin. There was no way we were going hard sleeper for 27 hours. We are so glad we did. It is more than twice the price and at about au $120 each its not cheap but its so worth it. At the start of the journey we had the entire carriage to ourselves. Now a few of the other cabins have people in but not many. It is so peaceful and we have a door we can lock. I went for a walk along the train from end to end and the seats are fully packed, the hard sleepers are 2/3 full.
  It was quite pleasant to return to our little cocoon.
