Tired of the China pictures yet? Almost done.
Of course we went to the Great Wall. We visited a section called Mutianyu, about an hour and a half drive from Beijing. I was rather lazy with the camera. The subject matter just felt overdone.
But here's a donkey.
That donkey probably hauled up this delicious popsicle, which I first thought tasted like jasmine, but then decided was bubblegum. The jasmine was in the air.
Another shot with popsicle for scale.
I never imagined it so green.
Lizard or something? There were also lots of big bumblebees buzzing around in the hot sun.
Hot and tired, we forgot about the slide option and took the stairs like losers. Poop.
These cats are just hanging out, probably trying to fathom the monumental achievement of all those people that built the Great Wall with rock and sweat and lime and a whole lotta effort in 206 BC.
