So we left Wudang a whole 3 days ago but it feels like ages...
I'm really sad. There's just something so amazing about waking up every day and knowing you're going to spend the whole day doing something you're passionate about. Of course there's parts of the training that almost feel like torture but when you can see better results all the time it makes those times feel so much more important.
Our last couple days of travel have been pretty bad. Spent seven hours in hard seats on the train from Wudang to Wuhan. Then our taxi driver couldn't find our hostel so he chose to drop us off on the side of a dark road in the pouring rain to fend for ouselves... people amaze me sometimes. Anyways, we got another taxi who also couldn't find our hostel but at least dropped us off at a pretty decent hotel. We visited a Daoist temple the next day which was certainly the highlight of our time in Wuhan. The monks there were really friendly and nice. I don't think it was a very touristy temple. We got more stares than normal. Hahaha.
Sleeping on the train was really great. I mean we had beds, but you can't sit up in them so we spent 17 hours laying down. Can't complain too much.. better than 17 hours sitting.
Shanghai has been really good. We've been surprisingly busy... going here and there, looking for this and that. We went looking for a silk market yesterday which we didn't find, but found alot of other things instead. Including some silk. Haha. That's just the way things work sometimes.
Pretty much since we left I've really just been looking forward to getting home. Big cities are really not my thing so I'm glad we're leaving tomorrow. Not looking forward to getting up at 530am though.
Since I haven't packed yet.... that's the end of this post.
