Our last day in China was cold and rainy and not an ideal day for visiting the famous Wall. Our guide threw his weight around and managed to get us fairly close to the entrance and saved us a slippery cold walk. Troy and I went through several levels and turned around because it was so foggy that we could not get any pictures so mainly we can say that we have been on the wall. After a traditional lunch we visited they Tombs of the Ming Dynasty and a long trip back to the city. Beijing is very beautiful this spring. All of the esplanades are covered with roses, inpatients, fox gloves and marigolds. The city is far less austere than I remember it. We will leave China tomorrow with many sweet memories of these beautiful countries and more especially of the beautiful people that we have met along they way. Troy and I will hold both closely for a long time.
