Believe it or not, one of us lost his wallet for at least three times in the past two months. But every time, he got it back. One of them happened in the Huiyuan Jinjiang International Hotel in Xi'an on Saturday, August 1, 2015. Ms. Zhang who worked in the 8th floor contacted us promptly when she found the wallet. Thank you, Ms. Zhang! Thank you, Huiyuan Jinjiang International Hotel! And, thank you, China!
