So, we made it to Harbin

We are currently spending our third day in Harbin. We leave tomorrow morning for Shenyan, hopefully we'll find a bus, and then make the three hour trip south to Dandong.


Harbin is a beautiful city with clean air, nice people, and actual city qualities. We are the only white people here, the only people wearing shorts, and I'm pretty sure Nick is the only person wearing sandals.


We visited a tiger park yesterday. Let's just say we took a safari in a caged bus through fields of hundreds of tigers. The tigers actually leaned up against our cage as paying individuals held meat out for them to eat. They don't do this at the Brookfield Zoo. More stories soon.


Wish us luck. We should be looking out over North Korea in 2 days.
