Leaving the boat at 8am we took a charter bus to the Dam.
Not much of a Diary entry as I found it boring personally. Just a mass of concrete ....
At 1:45pm I boarded yet another train. Hurrah last train of the trip and the most memorable.
It was nicknamed the Chairman Mao train as it was a train that should of stayed in that era. It was clean but I can definitely see why the government plan to get rid and replace it with a new fast train. Though most people would call it vintage or shabby chic nowadays, it needed more than a lick of paint. I thank god we were on the sleeper carriage as the next carriage looked as though all the locals were penned in.
Long trip till 5am.
Another pot noodle for tea ...
