Hong Kong and Beijing China







The ship docked in Hong Kong and I took an overnight tour to Beijing and the Great Wall. It was a great trip. I could have used a week to see more. Shanghai and Hong Kong are masses of high-rise buildings but in Beijing the center of town has been zoned for low buildings only so it is much nicer. 

I climbed the Great Wall for as much time as I had. It is really an amazing experience to actually be at and walk around on this wall that seemed almost like something that is only an old legend.
