Walking Great Wall - are you going?

Kat,

I'm on the same trip, have been with Exodus a number of times now, not had a bad trip with them yet (this will be my 5th) - you're in good hands.  Join the club about feeling anxious - I wish I was as dedicated to my own fitness as you seem to be...I'll probably be the one wheezing at the back:) I am not flying out with the group but via Amsterdam so will meet you at the hotel in Beijing...any tips on use of chop sticks as I am utterly useless:).  Wayne.

... looking forward to the GW Trip, it will be great seeing it at sunrise and dusk. 

Been browsing some interesting sites - like the photos on this one http://www.kinabaloo.com/great_wall.html 

See you all at the hotel, I am flying in a bit earlier into Shanghai and then travelling north from there!

Great to hear from some other people going.  I'm happy to join any wheezing at the back & useless chopsticks users clubs!  We can all really start the countdown now.  I'm actually going through some bits tonight. 

 I will be on the group flight, but we'll all come together at some point.  Anybody learnt any mandarin?  I bought a CD, but haven't go too far with it!

Big decisions about what to pack next.....!  I may have to quiz some of you more experienced travellers. 

See you all in a few weeks.

Kerry:)
