China University of Mining and Technology and more...

As I said before, we went to the China University of Mining and Technology (CUMT) for a brief couple of hours to tour the facilities and meet some students.  It turns out, I knew one of the students who went there, Zheng.  He was roommates with my former roommate, Willy.  This random coincidence led to some drinking to commemorate the occasion.

After having dinner at CUMT, we hopped on a 12 hour "sleeper" train to the city of Dalian.  Another post is to come about Dalian.  Here are some more pictures.

We stopped at a Chinese McDonalds... it was good, but it was definitely Chinese.
