The Great Wall was one of the places we visited today. I was wrong about the air quality in Beijing, must have been a weather related event that temporarily cleared the air because now we are back to breathing air that stings your throat and smells like a coal train. Just the thing for climbing 1500ft up the wall! It the wall itself was smaller than I had imagined but impressive to think about how long it is. For comparison they say the entire length would stretch from New York to Seattle and half way back again. Amelia our guide and Mr. Wu our driver were awesome. We are really glad for Mr. Wu's driving skills as traffic here is insane.
