The Great Wall...not for sissies

Well today we went to the Great Wall and it was awesome! So beautiful, it's hard to try to describe it. But I never knew how tough the climb is to the top and how steep! It's a good thing that Will and I are in perfect physical condition ;) Our guide told us to take the climb to the right - it was less crowded. So we did and she turned around and went to the coffee shop to wait for us. Nice

Then we went to the tomb of the 13th Ming emporer. We were told what a partier this guy was and a whole bunch of very interesting stories about imperial China. Will wanted to know how to aquire a concubine of his own, but I explained that he couldn't afford me let alone a concubine.

I am happy to report that tonight's dinner was much less scary then last night's. We had Peking duck and it was very good. However we had lunch at Pizza Hut (don't ask) and somehow I wound up with a piece of octopus on my pizza. What is it with these people and tentacles??

By the way Jayna, to answer your question, we did not bring Oreos but we did bring Peanut butter, Skittles and life-giving M&M's.

Don't forget to go to http://new.photos.yahoo.com/ourlittleflower/albums to see more pictures. I would upload more, but our internet connection is very slow. Tomorrow we go to Tianammen Square and the Forbidden city. Then Kunming tomorrow night and to get our baby on Tuesday! Stay tuned!
