Wow!! Great start!! :applesauce: :applesauce: Now, Helen, I have just discovered I'm fortunate enough to be going to Beijing in June and might see if I can see the Wall. Do you think you might have this completed by then?!

Jane, you are so lucky. I have a great guide book on Beijing if you would like it.
If you go to the same part of the wall we did, you can get a toboggan back down - great fun. It is a fabulous city and I'd go back in a heartbeat.

As for getting it done by June, can't promise as it is 18 pages long and I haven't completed one yet. :D :D
