First off the top is my first real day in China. We landed in Beijing on a Monday, were picked up at the airport and off to dinner to meet family(sorry, no pictures of most family). After a night of rest it was off to The Great Wall of China. Believe me they weren't kidding. I saw bits and pieces as we flew in, but I couldn't get any good shots from the air. Bad angles mostly. I was told by my mother and Sister in Law that there are three things that have to be done in China to be considered a man. Top of the list was climbing the wall. What could I do? Turn down a challenge like that? Time to start walking....
I climbed it and survived. Barely, but I survived. This got me started for the rest of my whirlwind tour of the far east.
Welcome home. I am looking forward to seeing the pictures.
ReplyDeleteHey there Paladin Phil - three things to do to be considered a man in China? Well I tell ya, I don't know if I could have made that climb! Good on ya!!
