When we were still waiting for our friends and our guide, we were able to rest and take pictures with Chinese kids. They were so many!
I think I didn't quite understand that our ticket back was not paid and that if we wanted to go back by cable cars we had to pay for the fare. We all came back walking. On our way up, in the cable cars, it didn't take us more than 10 minutes to reach the top. Going down was a whole other story.
It was wonderful to travel with my best friend. We had some disagreements on the way, but we got to solve them right away. We had great times in different situations and places. Some other that were not as pleasant. Camila knew that I was a little bit tired and she would often talk in a harsh voice to me b/c she thought I wasn't enjoying the trip. She was often sure about it. I almost didn't enjoy the beautiful view in the Great Wall because of a headache. I would be pissed off with myself if I had allowed that to happen. Camila, Jessica and I and our Irish friends decided to go walking. I guess we didn't expect to be such a long way. We had to focus not to fall on the way down. Too many ppl going down at the same time and some going up. Also, there were some pretty steep parts of the mountain. I was sure if I fell down at any time, no one would ever find me dead or alive. The view was magnificent, but we didn't enjoy as much as we should. We were so worried about going back on time that we did our best to be together with everyone in the same pace.
I recorded a little bit of what I had seen that day. The mountains are simply spectacular. It is possible to see the top of the mountains kinda blurry because the smog doesn't allow us to see clearly.
When we thought we were getting to the bottom...haha... we weren't! It was just a place for people to stop, rest, breath, eat and drink something. Camila, Jessica, Lily, Emmett and I had a bottle of water...but it was not cold... far from being cold, actually. Lily is such a sweet girl. She has this maternal way of treating people. She is always concerned a
bout people's health and well-being. I wasn't feeling okay at some point. Lily said it was because we were all losing too much water and that we hadn't eaten for hours. True. My legs were shakey but they had theirs too. After drinking some water and using our Chinese shangzi - fan - as much as possible, we took some pictures and headed back to the hiking path. On our way out we saw some typical Chinese food from the mountains. I still don't really know what was it. Maybe a kind of bird or chick. I don't know why they would eat that... but yeah. We were all like: "Yewww!"
