Hello,
We went to the Great Wall today and it was awesome. Henry told us a
story on the way that those who went to the top of the great wall were
heros so I then had to overcome my fear and get into the cable car and
go to the top so I too could be a hero. We then walked along the wall
and took tons of photos we walked to two of these forts it was about
2000 miles. On a side note the pit toilets are everything they say they
are maybe worse!!! We had a blast at the wall Joe and I rode a camel and
had our picture taken in uniform and we got certificates that showed we
were heros and climed the wall Jojo got a medal.
We then went to lunch and I must say the food is good. I am
experimenting I don't like everything but I can definitely find things
to eat the chop sticks are quite challenging and when you are tired and
hungry can be very frustrating. We then went to the Cloisinne factory
and mommy was set loose, even daddy got into it and Justine bought some
beautiful big vases. I bought stuff for Zoey I am on that 18 birthday
gift kick. Jojo got quite a few things too. It was fun!! We then came
back to the hotel and had to get ready for dinner. I am very tired. All
of the families are here and they are nice. It is nice to finally put a
face to the email. I am freezing Jessie too!!! I need some of my long
sleeved shirts back in my suitcase!!!! We are all enjoying Beijing
immensely. Henry and Shasha have been fantastic guides. We expect to
hear from you very soon!!!! Mommy and Justine are now going for
reflexology messages and Joe and I are going to sleep. Daddy is snoozing
on the couch as I write this email. Oh and I think of you at every meal
you would love the food and daddy is always the last one eating and you
would be with him eating so slow tasting everything. Okay Bye hugs and
kisses and lots of love.
