All walls are great if the roof doesn't fall..


.. (Thom Yorke shouldn't always be taken literally).

The Great Wall "experience" reminded me a bit of the Grand Canyon. I'm always a bit ho-hum about going to super-famous, fanny pack-friendly places I've seen over and over in pictures... and then I'm always pleasantly surprised when the place is pleasantly, surprisingly spectacular. It almost works better that way.

The GW really is that stunning. Geesh it's stunning.

GW was definitely not what I expected when we went as well. The engineering of it is nothing short of astounding. Looks like you had a great day.

my fave is picture number 3 where constance is in the foreground and you're in the background. it's very sonny and cher, we're in a band-ish.
