The great wall





So we have seen it, we have been there! (Paa norsk, maa jeg bare faa si at det var en real mur-tur, hehehe, vittig!)

It is a great wall, and the best part of it, we have been to a secret part of it, without any other tourists and local peolple following you until you buy postcards or t-shirts from them, and without the queue all the way, we were only 18 plus the guide, an old man, didn't speak a word english! The hostel arranges this kind of tour, very good!

Since it was a part of the wall that is secret, it hasn't been restored, which means we had to walk all the way, no lifts up, and we also had to walk partly just beside the wall, since it was too dangerous to walk on top of at some parts. Great! The real deal!

And Chinas countryside is at its most beautiful right now, I guess, everything is blooming and the mountainsides were covered in pink and purple and yellow, fabolous! So pretty!

We had a great tour to the great wall!

And the rest of the time things are kind of normal, it still feels like we have moved here and are going to stay here for years, but truth is we only have one week left in this crazy big town, and still a lot to see and do.. I myself have to admit that I become very lazy about the tourist things, I couldn't care less after school, and I always want to go straight home and relax, instead of going to some big market where the sellers are crazy, and you kind of have to buy stuff to get out alive..

But the last week is here, now we hav to se the rest! I think I can manage.. Okey, then!

To all of you worrying if we are taking care of our selves in this big city: we are! But its still nice to be reminded;)

So long!
