A Quick Note from Knife and Fork and Spoon

...the really cute restaurant we pass by every day and say, "We need to go to Knife and Fork and Spoon!" So we did. Not bad - a vegetable pizza, a tomato, mozzarella, and pesto salad, and two sodas for less than $5, and tasty too.

Anyway, the quick note is to say that we're heading to Harbin tonight. We had a bit of trouble getting tickets; we went to the ticket-selling place down the street and, according to them, all that was available were super deluxe rooms in a super deluxe train - for over double of our budget. In a panic, we rushed to the train station and had no problems buying two regular sleeper seats for our expected price. Later, we had a moment of regret over not having the super deluxe experience, but then we realized that the money we saved will pay about two months' rent.

So, we'll take pictures on the train and let everybody know how the adventure goes. See you in Harbin!
