One of things that I was really looking forward to this Chinese tour was going to Xi'an. This is the location of the famous Terra Cotta Soldiers. However, as we were packing our things to go to the airport to go to Xi'an, we got a phone call telling us that our flight was delayed and to stay put for now. Next phone call we got, was letting us know that the show had been canceled in Xi'an due to H1N1 (swine flu). The government was shutting down all "public" things, including our show.
There was no point in us going to Xi'an and the trip to the Terra Cotta Soldiers was canceled. We are now taking refuge in Wuhan, where we will perform next week. What a bummer.
