The Great Wall of China

Our last stop on Saturday was the Great Wall. I made the mistake of looking down the steep, steep stairs behind me and got scared. I could just see myself tripping or losing my balance and rolling down all the way to the bottom! That would NOT make for a very good Gotcha Day. So, I turned around, carefully grasped the handrail, and made my way back down. Evan and Mike ended up going very high! They would have continued, but Evan started coughing so badly from the smog. She stayed yards ahead of the rest and was so disappointed when she had to come back down. Others in the group said she was leader - no one could keep up with her.
We ended the night doing paperwork and packing for an early departure to Guangzhou!!!!
