First sighting of the Great Wall!
Mei-mei and me at a big welcoming rock.
Joab and Asa on the very nice cable car we took to get up the mountain.
Emily and Miriam with the Great Wall behind them.
The views were so awesome today. The weather was great and we had the whole place to ourselves mostly.
Krissy with the vastness of China behind her.
The Meyer Family on the Great Wall!
An un-updated tower and stairs on a section of the wall.
Wow, look at all that wall.
Asa and Joab checking out the view. Very sweet!
Emily and Asa checking out the picture perfect viewing area.
The Meyers and Krissy enjoying the day at the Great Wall!
Miriam scrambling up a steep part of the hike.
Another great view from a window.
Wow, isn't it just amazing??
The view from the terrace we had lunch on.
This is definitely not the desert...it's got too much water everywhere.
The grounds of the restaurant we had lunch at after our hike.
This place in Simatai is great. Anyone who is going to Beijing is highly recommended for this palce.
On the way home, we saw a truck full of donkeys..
And we searched for the Birds' Nest.
Only to find this, the almost finished Bird's Nest Olympic Stadium Venue.
