Hiking

My Mum is with us and we climbed an unrestored section of the Great Wall this week.  
It was a tough climb, but worth the view.  

Spring is starting to show her face here in China.

These are so beautiful! This is the first time I've ever had a "personal" view of the wall.

Very cool!

I am sort of surprised you are allowed to climb there. But then again, they probably don't have frivolous lawsuits to worry about. ;)

Wow, Donnah, you've done it again. These are fabulous! I think the unrestored sections would be even more interesting...really get a sense of the age of the structure. My jaw is still dropping from the third shot.

I love the 3rd shot too. I bet you didn't have any tourists climbing with you, either - what a great experience. Blue skies, too!
