The Great Wall! 长城

Today we went to the Great Wall of China.


Yay!


In Chinese, the Great Wall of China is called "长城" which literally
translates to "long wall". Today, I realized how accurate of a
description that is. Yes, the wall is pretty great - but that's mostly
to do with its incredible length. It's very beautiful, but if it were
not as long as it is, I think it wouldn't warrant any "great" in its
title.

The reasons why I'm saying this are because I spent at least 3 hours
walking along it today and it was friggin' long, man.

Why is it always feel like if I want to write more, I have to
sacrifice more sleep? I think I'm going to go to bed - that was a lot
of climbing.

Pictures are pretty self-explanatory, no?
