no, you can’t actually see it from space


After a day in the hotel having debriefing meetings together as a team, it was time for another outing- so i arranged a van and driver to take us outside the city to a section of the Great Wall. Quite the weekend! The Great Wall was an outstanding sight- being there with my students was definitely memorable. We just walked and talked...and marveled that we were so blessed to end our trip here. The landscape of wandering hills, the snowy ground...and the Wall itself, studded in guard towers, wending through the scene- it was amazing. Some sections were steep and tiring, but all were exhilarating.
