This is another installment of my vlog involving my trip to Xi'an. If you have been following this series, Johnathan and I first left Qinhuangdao to go to Tianjin and spend half a day there. Now, we got on the train to Xi'an and I documented this journey on video!

Unfortunately, this train was delayed for over 3 hours! We started moving for about 20 minutes from Tianjin and then the train stopped for some reason. After an hour an a half, the train finally started moving again. The trip should take about 6 hours but the train stopped multiple times a long the way. In total, we were delayed by about 3 hours! A 6 hour trip took 9 hours instead!

Fortunately, I had 2 movies (Dangerous Minds & All Eyez on Me) to watch so that helped a lot with passing time. It was also good to have a friend with me so that we could chat. If I was alone, I probably would've felt even worse.

When we arrived in Xi'an, I couldn't believe it! The journey was finally over! There was only a taxi ride left for us but we kind of enjoyed it because we were at least driving through the city.

Xi'an is such an awesome city. I'll be posting more content about the city. But this city is probably the most historically preserved city in China! You've got the Terracotta Warriors (stay tuned for that!) and awesome Muslim food.

We arrived at the hostel at around 3am and we were done for the day. Had to go to sleep and begin our Xi'an exploration the following morning!
