Beijing and the Great Wall

The beginning of our 10km hike along the Great Wall. Little did we know it was about to get a whole lot tougher!!!


Approaching the Great Wall (with Mathias, Lasse, Danish Christopher, Norwegian Stine and Chinese-American Jessica; Beijing university friends of Lasse and Mathias)


Pre-Great Wall Breakfast: Egg and bacon sarnie Beijing style- 20 pence! If we'd known what lay ahead, we would have had 6 of them!


Maintenance man in Mathias and Lasse's flat looking rather perplexed at Mathias trying to explain the problem with the leaking toilet, using a Mandarin phrasebook, and with goggles on his head!
