Great Wall

We went to the Great Wall today. On one side of the wall was higher than the other side. We think the higher side was where the enemies were. We took a 1.5 hour bus ride and the subway (30 min) from our hotel.  It snowed today at the Great Wall. We climbed up part of the wall and it was very very steep.  I slid down part of it on the ice.

    Thanks for the updates, Joel. Looks like so much fun but terribly cold in January there as I remember.

Yesterday we went to a garden.  There was lots of green vegetation and old people.  The old people think that being out in a garden area will keep them healthy and give them good luck.

Zoo

Yes, there is a zoo in China.  We went to the zoo this morning.  It had a lot of animals.  The animals were cool.  I got to sit on a pony.  Mommy got to hold a snake.  I am scared of snakes, so I didn't hold the snake.  I saw a Panda bear, lizard, mouse, flamingos, hippo, rhino, giraffe, elephant, monkeys, lion, tigers, dalmation, a little dog, a big dog.  Lots of monkeys.  They were howling and howling.  They were very loud.   I went on the great wall of China.  It was fun.  The great wall is in Beijing.
