No, I am not talking about an album by Pink Floyd. I mean the'Great Wall' - you know the one in China! Anyway we have travelled by coach for an hour and have arrived at the Mutianyu Great Wall. The scenery is breathtaking and the landscape very rugged. I didn't realise what a climb it is to get to the wall so accompanied by my friends Pedro, Frances and Rosa I have opted to travel to the top by cable car. We are all scared of heights, so we sing Guan Tanamera. This is the only song we all know that Pedro can join in with as he only speaks Spanish. I may need oxygen when I get there!
There is no oxygen for sale up here, but there is a man selling bottles of Coke and Walkers Crisps! This is very tempting, but he doesn't have bacon flavour and they seem expensive - Bu, taiguile!!! I am digressing, so back to the wall. There are no words to describe the structure or the view. I am 'gob smacked'! I will let the photo's do the talking for me.
