1 Upon arrival at our gathering point for the evening - the "11 Red Door Fire Station", Rob & I were greeted with souvenir stubby coolers filled with an ice cold beer, by our evenings guide - Ruixi.
2 Either we were early or extremely dehydrated, but we were both on our second refill by the time the tours remaining four participants, which included trainee tour guide, had arrived.
3 Once the introductions and greetings were completed, we climbed aboard three tuk-tuks and proceeded in criss-crossing Xi'an's back streets and "rabbit warren" suburbs for the next four hours.
