There were three scantly clad young ladies on platforms. The music was pounding and the strove lights mesmerizing. We mixed in on the dance floor, towering over the crowd, and had a grand time. Back to our rooms just after 2am we attempted to get some sleep. Ha-ha!
9am came earlier than usual and we set off on rental bikes for the Singing Sands. Huge sand dunes, some up to 3500 ft surround a natural spring. This spot was teaming with Chinese tourists riding camels and climbing the dunes. It was hot, we were all hung over, and shade was a commodity!
A few hiked the dunes, the smart ones found a tree, some shade, and a beer. Later we biked back into town. I chose to ride around the old city for a few more hours. A few others arranged to visit a local high school and have an English conversation with some students.
For dinner we went back to the night market for Chinese hamburgers and beer. It'll be an early morning as we head for the Great Wall.
