Along concrete paths at first and then off into brush climbing steep rocky terrain as before until we reached wall. Very touristy part which was a bit of a shock after so many remote days. Ended with what you might describe as a leisurely walk along the wall to our finishing point, although there were still many many steps up and down. James gathered everyone together, he wanted everyone to finish together so he asked for his back team - me, Carol, Sandy Andrea and Gemma to lead everyone to the finish point where Kevin was lurking with champagne which he sprayed all over us like grande prix winners. We then all celebrated with champagne big hugs and congratulations all round. Down on the cable or toboggan. Back to Beijing via The Bird's Nest stadium, from Beijing Olympics Quick check in to hotel and out for celebration meal of Peking Duck where awards were given out. Mine was for most dignified trekker - (I think that was a nice word for oldest!!!).
Happy Ending ! |
