Ben and Claire's Intrepid Travels
A highlight of the trip so far has to be our 10km walk on the Great Wall, even if it did chuck it down for half of it! The wall and the mountains it scales are undescribably spectacular. It undulates steaply but it's worth every step. The section of the wall on which we travelled was not very touristy...the only other people there were the local farmers, who walked 5km with us, trying to sell books and t-shirts. One woman took a liking to Claire, and held her hand on all the steep bits. We arrived at our guest house, soaked and knackered, but with an early night, we got up at 4am to go see the wall in its best light the next morning. Stunning!
