Great Wall

Yesterday we went to the great wall sorry for the delay in posting. We got in late last night and went straight to bed. The wall was amazing the section we went to was very easy to climb no mountain hiking with steep stairs. There were few stairs most of it was the flat flowing sections where you didn't have to put much effort into climbing. I would highly recommend it to anyone who has little kids. Very easy to climb with short legs. It about and hour and 15 minutes from downtown so it is not very touristy and it is very peaceful and quiet. The only complaint we had about the day was that it rained and we couldn't ride the slide down the mountain. We had to ride the gondola both ways which wasn't horrible we were just really looking forward to the slide. I am unable to post pictures as my computer wont read the memory card but I will try to get them up before we leave tomorrow morning but no promises. We leave Beijing at 6:25 pm China time tomorrow please pray we do not have a delayed flight from Beijing into Dulles and that we can clear customs and immigration easily and get to our connector in a timely manner.

  1. Taylor, I am so sorry you did not get to Toboggan down the great wall. I know how much you looked forward to this. But there is another year, as we both know, you will return!!!
