The Great Wall of China
Don't tell my parents, but what I was most excited about seeing in China was the Great Wall of China. I mean, come on, it's THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA. And it did not disappoint. It was very cool. Jason and I opted to go to the Mutianyu section of the wall beause since it was a little further from Beijing than some of the others it tends to be less crowded. We were glad we went there and went early in the morning, because there were often long stretches we had all to ourselves. Our only regret was that if we had gone even a month later it would have been so much greener...but I should really stop complaining now. It was still stunning.

We rode this lift up to the Wall.
And actually took this slide back down!
Worth the trip!

I still remember the chills and even tears that came when I was at The Great Wall...it's amazing!!
A slide to descend? Fantastic! 7 miles of stairs. My knees hurt just to think of it. Of Course you were excited to see The GreatWall! Even the astronauts wanted to see it.
