We flew to Xi'an. This is where the Terracotta Warriors were discovered. We went to see the wall that surrounds the city and we walked on this wall, too. This one was flat on the top and much easier to walk on. It was 9 1/2 miles all the way around. Tomorrow we will go to see the warriors. They are life sized clay statues and each one is different. There are 8,000 buried at this site. They have uncovered and put back together 2,000. It is an amazing thing to see. We got to meet the man who first discovered the warriors while he and 2 friends were digging a well. He is 79 years old.
