It was a bit cramped in third class, but a fun experience! I met some cool people and we even had a little dinner party.
What was the best food you ate in Harbin?
That egg and sausage burrito from the morning market was amazing! It was hot, crispy, and so tasty. And it was only 8 yuan!
What was the most unexpected thing that happened?
Definitely the dragon dancing in the park! I never expected to learn how to do it, but the park uncles were amazing teachers.
