Where do I start First of all 2 entries on this in 1 day........miracle!
We set off to the wall and passed all the Olympic stuff on the way, cool. Then drove further; saw the wall in the distance. Still looking like it did in the text books. Paid to get in and there it was right in front of us.
This thing was huge, you would never do it justice until you are standing in front of it. Step after step we climb and climbed and climbed. Talk about training for the next walk, I found it. One of the best things I have ever seen in my life. Hard climb but worth it every step. Photo at the bottom to prove it.
Then off to Mings Tomb, very cool to go under ground and see a city. Tons of traffic and near death driving experiences. Goodness, not so good drivers.
Then lunch, lunch, lunch. Still thinking about it. A true local restuarant where the other girls tried duck feet, not so much me but could not avoid trying the whole chicken fried on a plate and the pork intestines........I am so eating rice for the rest of the time.
Off to the Forbidden City and ended in T. Square for a stroll. Then awwww. back to the hotel to feel a bit like and American before tomorrows journey deeper into China. I bet there is tons of duck feet there!
