Train Tickets

We obtained our train tickets this morning, now on August 7, all in one cabin. This round, the goodwill came from a colleague of Grace's mother. The tickets we bought on Monday were returned for refund. Returning the tickets through normal channels would have incurred a 20% penalty, or RMB420 for our four tickets. We should arrive in Beijing around 11am on August 8. We heard that all flights from Mudanjiang to Beijing have been cancelled duriing the Olympics. Hopefully our train ride back to Beijing will carry no surprises.
