The Wall in Our Backyard

Summer means longer days, warmer weather, and more chances to get out of the city.  What better place to go than the Great Wall?

Weekend trip to Jiankou (箭扣)

We stayed at a farmhouse for 20 RMB/night

 Our room

Evening hike to catch the sunset

 The stairs were in ruins, so we climbed up the side

 Waiting for the others

The Wild Wall

C + Z

Champagne, wine, stickers and face paint

Did I mention stickers and face paint?

I like to run

I like to eat...tofu?

Superhero? Bat? Lisa Simpson?

 Breathtaking...






 We hiked from Jiankou to Mutianyu (慕田峪)


Stole this from a travel mate.  As C says, "同志们起来...起来!!!"
