I cant believe I forgot to write about this...
So anyways in the Summer We and the Brittons went to some caves about 2 hours south of Xi'an by train... When we got there we tried to get a taxi but the price was rediculous and we decided we could walk there instead... (or so we though) After a long time we finally figured it out... and to make a long story short we ended up taking three taxis and 1/2 the price more then what it would have been if we had simply gotten a bus from the train station, plus we would have saved about an hour or two in time. Well we got to the Big Caves and figured that Engpower didnt have enough to cove the trip (from the waste of money on the taxies) so we decided to walk down to the Small Caves... which took a lot more time and in the dead of a typical Xi'an summer... which means 45˚C
We got to a little Village and decided we were hungry... well homes just turn into restaurants and since we were foreign they made it their best (which was so nice of them whee ) And then comes the picture taking D: well finally after have a nice rest we go and find the Small Caves go inside and Oh My! It was Beautiful!! and Oh so refreshing! usually caves are cold... and it was but since it was extremely hot outside I dont know why I even bothered bringing a jacket! I could have even taken my T off... (but couldnt) I absolutly loved it in there! The colours, the rock formations, the water.... the Bats? o_O There were Millions of them, they were so loud!
The one thing that got to me though was when we were heading out the tonnels were very narrow and I felt like I was going to Die!!! I'm not clausterphobic... but there are time when I deffinatly do feel it and this was one of them... but because the way was so narrow there was a Bat that was flying by and it ened but landing on my mom's Shoulder who was right in front of my and then it flew back Right Into My Face!!! DDDD: I dont usually scream.... but I did gonk
