Acrobats were awesome. Pretty quiet theatre but the show kicked ass. The girls managed to miss it as they were messing about in the spa for ages and then couldn;t find the place as they had all left their maps at home. Must have been the shock of having to navigate for themselves as Mike and I have been doing most of that.

Still no clue what i'm going to do for the next few weeks as the Shoalin thing might not happen due to tight travel connections and the other option is trekking in Inner Mongolia but might take too long. If do go to Inner Mongolia then mioght try to make own way up to the border as there is prob no point in trapsing all the way back to Beijing just to head back again. But we will have to wait and see...looking forward to getting a good nights sleep tonight though as I haven't has a lie in since I got here.

Hope all is well back in the real world.
