Ahh the Great Wall... What you've all been waiting for. The wall was pretty much everything it's said to be: huge, precipitous, sublime and improbable in its very existence. It was quite a hike up, but it was very worth it. We went to the second-most-popular part of the wall near Beijing, not soaked in tourists like Badaling, but not resting quietly in ruins like Simatai, either. Here are some pictures from my trip, I may go to a more secluded place later on in my trip to go for a nice hike, so expect more to come.
PS sorry for the glare, Beijing is very, very, very hazy. Thanks, General Motors.
This one's for O... my you sure get around!
This is my friend Andrea, who is hanging off the wall hundreds of feet above the jagged rocks below.... Canadians....
