We had our tour guide take this picture of us at the Summer Palace in Beijing.

Along the river at the Summer Palace we had this photo taken.

Donna is seen from a distance to show the massive size of this great achievement of mankind.

Donna stops to rest at a turn on the Great Wall. The Wall is a series of millions, if not billions, of stairs up and down. You really need to be in shape to climb this wall.

Dustin stops for this photo opportunity with the Great Wall climbing the mountain in the background.

Donna takes this picture of Dustin at a turn in the wall.

Time's up! With only two hours at the wall we were able to climb through 5 towers, even though the 7th tower was at the top on the mountain. After an hour and a half we decided we would need the next half hour to get back down. Going down is just as painful as going up. This photo shows Dustin taking his time.

We ran into a fellow American at the wall who had a camera that simply put mine to shame. After talking awhile he offered to take our picture together. We said, "Okay!"

Another shot of us together at the Great wall.

Here is a photo of us at the Great Wall...does this photo look funny? Donna was cropped into the picture.

We had this photo taken at the Temple of Heaven. Usually we would have alot of people behind us, because it is usually filled with people singing and dancing, but it rained that day so there was no crowd.
