After
another night sleeping on a rock hard bed, we were up dressed and
down for a so so breakfast at 6.30am.
Yet
again I chose to wear my grey shoes, yes I am slow to get it at
times, anyway our first stop of the day was The Great Wall. I did not
even think about attempting to climb it, Tim however, thought about
it and walked up around only a couple of hundred metres before
deciding it wasn't something he wanted to do.
After
our group photo was taken I decided to check out the souvenir
shops,there were two different shops with some awesome souvenirs and
yes I bought a few things. After I checked out the first shop and was
looking around the second shop that I saw Tim he was suddenly
standing beside me. After buying some souvenirs we decided to get an
ice cream each, it was around 34°c and I had a yoghurt cone which
was big and nice, haven't had one of them in years
After
the Great Wall we headed for our Rickshaw ride but first there was a
walk around by the lake but our tour guide Lisa said she thought it
would be too much walking so I waited in a coffee shop. She then
arranged for the rickshaw to pick me & Tim up at the corner of
the road saving me a long ass walk, after the ride we had a meal in a
typical Chinese household, how typical it was I do not know but more
about that tomorrow. After the meal she arranged for another rickshaw
to pick me up and take me back to the bus.
It
was then back to the hotel for the night
Throw. Away. The. Gray. Shoes.
