It was another early morning, 6.45pm the alarm woke us up! We had some breakfast in our fancy restaurant then the guys came to join our adventure to the great wall. We got on the bus and the first stop was a Jade-factory where we bought one souvenir each. Then we headed towards a Ming Tomb, really interesting where we got to learn some of the Chinese history. Then we got on the bus again and the next stop was the Great Wall!! Wonderful! We drove a tricky way up to the mountains and then we got free time for about two hours. We took the lift up to the Wall and walked upp and down among the stairs. But what a view, amazing! After this we got a well earned meal in Chinese style, yummy! Then we took the bus to the next stop which was a silk factory where they tried to get us to buy things. We didn't buy anything even though there were many beautiful things. Next stop was a place called Dr. Tea where we tried five different kinds of tea and got to learn how to make it and what it was good for.
Then we went back to town with the guys and we were starving so we tried to find a place to eat. During the watchout for a place to eat we saw some foodmarket where they had tons of food. We ate snake!!!!!!! Then we finally found a restaurant where we had some famous Peking duck. It was ok but the restaurant was filthy! Johan continued his hunt for a 3000-5000 kr system camera that he would get for 1500 haha! We headed back to our hotel without a camera. We wanted to play pool, but apparently the hotel didn't have one even though there was a picture of one.. So Emelie and the guys played a last game of cards and Krista laid on the bed and felt really I'll. We said our final goodbyes and our "protectors" set off into the chilly Beijing night. Home they have a great trip and that we see them again :) finally bed time!

vitha Almost all of these would allow a level of siciebtuvjty, which seems an odd way of trying to make things more objective. For that reason, it's hard for me to see how this service can be relied on. pandreson
