My original plan for my trip was always to make it to Mongolia. With this in mind, once in Beijing, and with trains only leaving a couple of times a week, it made sense to buy my train ticket at the soonest opportunity and visit Beijing, Xi'an and Shanghai properly on my return journey if time permitted.
Buying the train ticket was an adventure in itself and was really my first introduction at how hard navigating in China could get. I had researched the purchasing of the ticket in advance, as originally purchasing the ticket was going to be the first item of business after leaving New Zealand.
Sighting my first Ger, Camel and Eagle from the train was very exciting. On the train I met a girl called Laura from Germany. She was a musician and we spent the next few days travelling together.
