Monday, June 23.
We were awakended at 5:30 with an extremely loud thunderclap. Today
has been very rainy. In spite of the weather, we took the buses
through Qinhuangdao to the beginning of the Great Wall at "Old
Dragon Head." Here the Great Wall extends a short distance
into the sea. We also walked around at the place on the Great Wall
called "The First Gate of Heaven." We had lunch, and then
organized activities in the afternoon - shopping, staying at the
hotel, visiting a hydroponic garden center, walking to the beach.
