The Great Wall - so close and yet so far


This is as close as I managed to get to The Great Wall - just a picture on the ground floor of the Pearl Tower. My friend Sue, who's posing with me, actually extended her stay in China and got to see the real thing in Bejing! Who knows? Maybe someday I'll come back and actually climb the Wall, too. Hopefully I'll come in the spring or the fall - the 100 degree summer heat with 95 percent humidity was almost unbearable.
