TITLE: PARENTS AT SIMATAI
LOCATION: 司马台长城
MISSION: SCALE THE WALL! (AGAIN)
DATE: 2009-05-31

We were planning to go to 慕田峪 (Mutianyu) but the buses apparently only go there once every week. Sooo...there was a last minute change of plans and we went to 司马台 instead. We were a little worried the mom's new hip would't be able to handle the strain of hiking, but it turned out to be no problem at all. Even though I brought the book I bought last time I came here, the extremely annoying "guides" on the wall wouldn't leave us alone until I yelled at them in Chinese. I get it you are poor and you make a living by selling ridiculously overpriced souvenirs, but that doesn't mean that I'm obligated to buy them. Anyway, once they left us alone we had a great time. This part of the wall is definitely more beautiful closer to summer with more greenery surrounding it. Sure, the sun is scorching in the summer time, but it is at least nice to look at.
