The Great Wall and Summer Palace - Jan 2 2010
Hello to you all from Beijing, China. Today we went with our guide Reagan, who is fantastic by the way, to the Great Wall at JuYongGuan Pass. It was an awesome experience. It was not crowded at all which made it seem like a more personal experience. We also toured the Summer Palace but a shortened version as it was getting a bit chilly, even for us Vermonters. I am attaching some photos from today so hopefully this all comes thru ok as I can't see the blog site from in China. Tomorrow we tour the Forbidden City and then fly out to Shanxi province at 4:30. We will try and update again either tonight or sometime tomorrow. I think the jet lag is getting to Jo since she has fallen asleep as I've been writing this. Bye for now, Jim & Jo.
