The Great Wall

This is going to be a quick post and I will post more later.  We did an all day tour yesterday to the Great Wall Badaling and the Ming Tombs.  Also included was a trip to a Jade factory which included a traditional Chinese lunch. Then we got to go to the Beijing Zhong Yan Wan Kang Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine.  Where they told Tim and I (and squeezed our bellies) that we needed to loose weight to be healthier :).  Well that should be enough to get us motivated huh?

The Great Wall was an awesome sight.  Unbelievable!!  It was very windy, but we made it to the top!  It was quite a bit of work to get there, but if we took a few breaks we could keep going.  For those that get to the top, the Chinese say we are a Heros.  WE ARE HEROS!

We are leaving for Xi'an today--on the plane at 12:30pm and there by 2:30pm.  We will get ourselves set up there and find out when we meet Caleb.

I will post more later.

Love you,
Shelly
