For the third day in succession we had full sunshine for our excursion to the Ming Tombs (Sacred Passage) and the Great Wall (Mutianyu). The Wall lived up to our expectations and more. The early spring blossoms were out making the visual spectacle even more sensational. We walked over 5 miles along a section before returning and running the gauntlet of souvenir shops.

A great way to finish our two weeks in China!

And again apologies for sketchy blog…the fault of frustratingly poor and censored internet in China together with struggling laptops!
