Great Wall of China - 29 September 2008

At last, my China checklist is complete!

Today we visited the Great Wall at Mutianyu.  It's probably stupid, but I never thought about the fact that you would have to visit the wall at a specific location.  I knew that it was over a thousand miles long, but just never thought about the logistics of visiting it.  

I thought that I also knew that the wall was the only man-made object visible from the moon - but that myth has been debunked for me now.  Ignorance may not be bliss, but sometimes it's a more fascinating existence.

It was a foggy day, so not too many good pictures.  It's also quite a bit of exercise, so I got nice and sweaty.

Hooves + Chopsticks - looks like I'll be losing some weight

This would keep me out - how about you?

Like Frosted Flakes - it's Great!
