And then the one we got off at Chengdu and the length of that train ride and how we, the buildings never seemed to stop along the way.

Lemonade Stand
A Very Chinese Time… | Ep.055 Lemonade Stand🍋

And the hall of the train station is like the biggest thing you've ever seen with like an almost like,

Lemonade Stand
A Very Chinese Time… | Ep.055 Lemonade Stand🍋

indescribable distance of trains and platforms at each one we started and stopped at.

Lemonade Stand
A Very Chinese Time… | Ep.055 Lemonade Stand🍋

It all feels a little surreal in how big it is.

Lemonade Stand
A Very Chinese Time… | Ep.055 Lemonade Stand🍋

Like this, and it doesn't really exist like this anywhere else.

Lemonade Stand
A Very Chinese Time… | Ep.055 Lemonade Stand🍋

Like there's other countries in the world that have really good infrastructure and public transportation, but it doesn't exist at this scale, right?

Lemonade Stand
A Very Chinese Time… | Ep.055 Lemonade Stand🍋

Lemonade Stand
A Very Chinese Time… | Ep.055 Lemonade Stand🍋

I think seeing it be done in this way with this many people makes me...

Lemonade Stand
A Very Chinese Time… | Ep.055 Lemonade Stand🍋

I think this demonstrates that like, dude, it's possible.

Lemonade Stand
A Very Chinese Time… | Ep.055 Lemonade Stand🍋

I think people argue... A lot of times when you argue with people about public transportation in the US or infrastructure in the US, they will tell you that a lot of the things you would want are not possible because of things like the amount of people we have.

Lemonade Stand
A Very Chinese Time… | Ep.055 Lemonade Stand🍋

Or like politically it's impossible or logistically it's impossible.

Lemonade Stand
A Very Chinese Time… | Ep.055 Lemonade Stand🍋

It's like we, so, and that is, it's a justification from Los Angeles to beggars field, but we went to the train.

Lemonade Stand
A Very Chinese Time… | Ep.055 Lemonade Stand🍋

The train that we went on last night was basically the equivalent of us going from LA to Dallas overnight.

Lemonade Stand
A Very Chinese Time… | Ep.055 Lemonade Stand🍋

That's what we did.

Lemonade Stand
A Very Chinese Time… | Ep.055 Lemonade Stand🍋

Yes.
