On our way to the great wall

It was a Sunday but the traffic was horrendous. We took the bus to the Badaling section of the great wall. Even before we got there we could sections of it wending its way through the mountainous terrain. It was a terrific sight, the object of our desire and we are finally close to it.





This was a rather awakening, to see this KFC restaurant at the entrance. It was magnificent and crowded. This was the famous great wall of China, this section has been restored and one could walk and climb for miles. My leg was hurting and I tried not to be too ambitious. I wish I had more time. We wanted to go to the other more rugged sections of the wall but couldn't find transportation there.
