It was time to head home after breakfast on Saturday morning.

Tibet Vista has arranged a driver to pick us at 9am to send us to the train station.

We did not get our paper train tickets. The tour manager told us we can just show our passports, as we were registered.

It will be ~20 hours ride.

We will have lunch, dinner, and next day breakfast in the train.
