Some of you know that I never travel alone and this trip is no exception. Penelope is with me and as usual she is great company.
We were out walking in the countryside the other day when came across this huge, Great Wall.
It was mind-blowing how it snaked across the hills.
I took in the surroundings trying to work out where we were. Suddenly, a local villager came running the other way screaming something which, with my poor Chinese language skills, sounded like "The Mongols are coming!" (but I may be wrong because I am not fully aware of past and future tenses in Mandarin).
Anyway, we climbed up the wall and I managed to get a shot of Penelope surveying the landscape. She got a bit peeved because she doesn't like portrait shots, but I think she looks great.
We are on our way down south tomorrow, so I may correspond from there. Love to the family.
Al.
