We love to travel and experience different places and particularly like to view and photograph the world's wonderful array of wildlife - and we are so so lucky to still be able to do so although a little slower these days.

The unrestored sections are awesome
I have visited the Great Wall a few times and I enjoyed the unrestored sections more. I would like to make a trip along the wall from east to west some time.

I wish you good luck. /Ake
