10/9/98: Travel day 200!… On the train we met Gene and Deb, from Alberta, Canada. He’s a university Prof. who teaches technical writing, and she is a CPA… They are traveling for an extended period of time too, and do so every five years since he gets every fifth year off with pay! I think I want to go be a Canadian university professor… This is the first time in this whole journey that we have wound up sharing a compartment with tourists rather than locals…
NOTE: The photo above shows a few folks getting fresh air from the windows of a commuter train out of Xi’an, China.
