Reveille at seven, because the train leaves at dawn that is, 8.42. As it often happens with Chinese railways - our departure is delayed. Several minutes and finally quit after ninth Datong. We found for the majority of seats left up, although the spots are not acquired. The only one who should come to travel in doing, is Marian. Our "lucky" on average every minute needs to wake up and pass the Chinese people przeciskajacych August. After some time, loses patience and starts to speak very ugly (mostly the "k"). Fortunately for Jiningu, where we change, it is only 150 km. We get there a few minutes before noon. On the journey "to China," we know procedure, which we now apply. For existing tickets we go to the checkout where we need to replace them, such that will be important to the tour, "Jining - Erlian. Walk over to the window and hear the famous Chinese "me already." Polish: "no." How does it not? Interpreters after the China-English-Polish, we do not have seats. Just get tickets for today. "Tomorrow" - corresponds to the lady clerk. Tomorrow at 17-this is take the undergroung our train to Ulan Bator. And what is important - not Jiningu, and distant by more than 500 km and lying in another country Zamyn uud. We are looking for "happiness" in the next hand. Unfortunately - a scenario exactly the same. The third cash and the third denial. It's getting dull. At a quarter past twelve. Outside it is raining. Matt moves in search of the bus station. My attempts to return the tickets. None of this - are already part quantities used, so no one will adopt. 12.25 - runs up Matthew and informs the bus leaves at 12.40 Erlian. Cost of tickets - 70 yuan. The additional expense and little time is only 2 / 3 of the problems we face at this time. "This third" is a lack of funds in our portfolios. Zakupiwszy train ticket to the Erlian all of us left a few yuan - in order to sleep and eat only after getting to the border towns. An additional complication is that, and Jining is the capital of world finance, and ATM on every corner will not find. Who calculated the lightning speed as has in his purse and it turned out missing about 150 yuan. Along with Matthew and Marian Then we find an ATM. 12.30 on the clock. We rush to the bank's provider listing miraculously found and soon to "of monetary machinery." 150 RMB in grabs and rush to the station. 12.35 - literally fly to the cashier and buy tickets desirable. Hmm ... "buy" is too much to say. The reality was this: a cashier prints the tickets, and we folded money. Each brings to its portfolio as possible. Count up the small, 470 ... 480, 481, gee, 481 and an end. A need for nine more. 12.39 - begins after the burial of a feverish portfolios Submission yuan partial fractions, and to the still far away. Lucy digs with the class the last two yuan, I am out of pocket three half sizes. Grain to grain ... and miraculously gathered 490RMB. Literally a "miracle" because they were all without a fraction yuan for the soul. Packed into the bus. There, new adventures. Chinese people like Ant, but their luggage did. Our patience has an end too, so even Marian parszywie jet explodes and the fellow passengers. Leave half an hour 'delay Jining. Before us 350 km to the border Erlian.
We get there shortly after 18-th. Trying to withdraw money in the 24 banking fiasco ends. Not because they do not work ATM. Reason is different - the bars of the entrance leading to the machine. Here's access "24 / 7" with the release of Chinese. At night we go to where there previously. After long discussions via the Google translator, we managed to reach an agreement. We get it, what we fought. One room for seven. Price - 70 yuan. 4.5 USD per person. Sounds good, especially after the release of an extra 70 yuan for the travel. The last meal we eat in a Chinese-looking meanly bar. Moments after our entrance to the two runs of Zula, and they begin Click just before the door. We have moments of doubt - or stay here is definitely a good choice? We decide to take a gamble and the gamble pays off. "Clothes do not make the man", not the first impression that testifies to the joke will be good. And it was good. And mega cheap. 7 RMB per chicken, 5 RMB per eggplant. Ends up with dignity in our boarding "Cathay."
