Just about to leave Beijing on a night train to Xi'an, but have had a fab few last days here...
After seeing the Lama temple and doing a Hutong tour and visiting the Forbidden city, temple of heaven and Tiannenmen square we also completed our 4 hour hike of the Great wall of China! the highlight so far being the great wall, it was absolutely amazing and very sureal as it was a great day and the sun was shining as we stopped for lunch (ham sandwiches, apples and bananas..)at the 15th tower across our hike of 30.. so as a treat to ourselves and our legs we both decided to get back down by taking the flying fox - aka zip wire across the river to the bottom..class!
leaving in an hour or so now but we will upload photos at our next stop - heading for terracotta warriors on friday so we will update you all then some more...
love D & G

Ni Hao Ger and Debs! (do u like that ha??)
well lads sounds like things are getting better after the 4 hours in Heathrow and that Langer of taxi driver with his forged money....so ye found the Great Wall anyway, any sign of that lad from Shity (sorry City) Wok?? i believe he's doing some renovation work after running into a spot of bother with those God Damn Mongolians
not much craic from here lads, went to the Ireland-Wales game in Croker....pure shite..to quote Stan "he ain't got a scooby-doo"
Get those photos uploaded I want to have a good laugh at Ger beside the Wall in his Dubs Jersey, shorts and socks
Chat later lads, safe travelling!
