The Great Wall

We felt fortunate on Saturday that although it was still very foggy when we left Beijing, it was mostly clear by the time we reached the Great Wall. We were also fortunate to travel there while the leaves were changing. It's hard to imagine the amount of work needed to create 3000 miles of this amazing structure. It's hard to see from the pictures, but from this vantage point you could see the wall following the ridges for miles into the distance.

Great photography! You are there during a beautiful season - February was not so pretty with the foliage being all dormant. We will be following your daily and praying for safe travels!
