The Great Wall
What an amazing experience to walk a couple of miles up The Great Wall on Saturday…
As we joined thousands of others walking up the steps, Steve and I were stopped from time to time by locals who asked to get their picture taken with us….There were some Westerners, but a substantial majority of the tourists were Chinese folks of all ages — from babies to elderly individuals….
You’ll notice in the pics above the funny hats we were wearing — it couldn’t have been more than 20 degrees, so Steve and I each purchased a fur hat (~$7) so we could enjoy our visit despite the cold air and breezes.
