Today we explored the Great Wall. We took a private van from the hotel, well worth the money when traveling with young children. We stopped at the olympic venues, which were spectacular. Big papi puffin from SHED was very impressed with everything. The driver took us to an area of the wall which was less crowded, and which has a tram to bring people up to climb. It was fantastic. The weather was hot,but not unbearable. We spent about an hour and a half, which was just enough time. We did a little shopping. People told me my Chinese was good! It was fun.
Tonight we walked down to the Forbidden City and walked around the outside. Tomorrow we hope to head to the Zoo to see the pandas.
Zai Jian!
