We went to the Great Wall in the morning. The structure was just breathtaking. Fortunately it was cloudy day. Chairman Mao said once before he who does not reach to the great wall is not a true man. Here we were on top of the wall proudly proclaiming our true manhood.

On our way to the Ming tomb, we stopped at a restaurant where we stumped into the Miss International Tourism participants. They were first spotted by the Hoffmans. Eric and I purposely walked through their dinner area seemingly innocently. Eric and Tyler later pretended as new reporters from WXZL of Washington DC and interviewed a few contestants (They will show the tape to you for a small nominal fee). The best response was from Miss Estonia (Karin’s home country) when asked what she did today. She said she went to a big wall.

After coming back from the big wall, we had about an hour and half to ourselves before our next meeting. I decided to check out a place near a hospital where blind people give massages. I was glad that I did. The massage was really good. I did not even have to take off my clothes.

We were treated by Michael with a dumplings dinner. Again, it was excellent.
