Quite amazing to believe I am actually standing on the Great Wall. The sky is blue and temp about 26 c. We arrived at about 11:00 and had 3 hours climbing the wall. The part we climbed had very few people. It has all been restored as the locals pinched all the stone for their own use over the centuries. We used a cable car
to get to the top and were supposed to use a toboggan to come down but it sprinkled with rain so they closed it down. We ended up walking down. I am unable to post picture at the moment because internet is very slow.
Two things I learn today. The great wall can't be seen from the moon and it was not built to keep out the rabbits.
