Hilarity at the 7Sages

Decided to take a photo of ourselves in the mirror as we walked by and then spent the most hilarious 5 minutes trying to get everyone at least semi composed!!! Think the staff and other guests thought we were completely bonkers!
The foursome split up today with R and K going to the Terracotta Warriors and B and L going to the Huaqing hot springs.  The Warriors was a definite bucket list checked off for Kim and Russell and the camera was well and truly utilised capturing the amazing finds and restoration at the Warrior pits.

Brent and Les had a real history lesson and turns out that not taking togs was a really good idea as the ancient "springs" were probably last used 2000 years ago!
All of us really enjoyed the days activities and had much fun downloading the photos and comparing our day.

After a quick meal at a local restaurant it was off to the train station with some trepidation to catch the 16 hour train to Chengdu.... No sleeper available so it was upright seats all the way.  More about that later, but the intrepid travellers made up a new word.... INTREPIDATION!
