The Great Wall of China
It was a rainy and foggy Saturday to visit the Great Wall of China, but visit we did, and climb we did... That's a lot of steps straight up! Catherine made it full up to the second tower from the bottom. Steve made it up four towers! The towers were spaced by the builders about two arrow shots apart to leave no part of the carriageway unprotected. The Great Wall itself was created after the unification of China under Qin Shi Huangdi (221-120 BCE).

It looks like you're having a great trip and seeing the sights. My parents were impressed you went so far up the stairs. They said it's pretty challenging. Your trip sounds fun, and I'm enjoying your posts.
Love, Jim
