So after a very hot and sweaty trek from the train station we waited for a taxi which proved to be hilarious trying to explain to someone that spoke no English where we wanted to go. After a lot of ranting at us he drove and dumped us (and luggage) at the side of a road and pointed in a direction.
Thanks to Kris's excellent planning we managed to track down our hostel which although very very basic is a nice relief from the heat and smog of Beijing. After collapsing on our beds we have just taken stock of our adventure so far looked at the tickets and realised the lady booked us on a train a day too early. So only 2 nights in Beijing we are off to explore as much as possible before the journey continues....
