The Kentucky volleyball team’s cultural exchange trip to China continued on Saturday. The Wildcats traveled inland, making a trek of more than 180 miles by bullet train from Shanghai to Nanjing.The team then checked into its new hotel. The Cats were impressed.
Just reached Nanjing and I’m in heaven. Nicest hotel I’ve ever seen in my life

Along the way, the players got some attention from locals and met a volleyball great.

Internet issues persist, keeping the Cats from posting any thoughts of their own, but continue to check in on UKVBtoChina.com to stay updated. A big day of sightseeing is ahead of Sunday, so we hope to have plenty of good stuff to share.
