Are you comfortable with your neck in the sand?

It was great doing it in Winter because we were the only ones on the entire wall, except for the little old Mongolian women who followed us for a good 5 or 6km and then tried to guilt us into buying stuff. The zip line at the end was great, although worryingly our Chinese driver/"guide" decided to walk down instead. Sat 24 May 2008 11:18:50 GMT+1
