Re: photos from my trip

This is the Army of 8000 human size Terracotta warriors in Xian. Pretty cool thing to see. A farmer was digging for a well and he came across these guys buried. Apparently they were made for a megalomaniac emperor so he would have an army with him In the afterlife. China likes to call it the 8th world wonder, i beg to differ, if you don't have the time to make your way out to xian, than don't feel bad that you've missed it.
