After an hour of walking to and from a short section of the Great Wall, we went to our van so we could move on. However the tour guide was speaking with an elderly lady who got lost. She said she'd been walking around for 2 hrs looking for her tour group but she couldn't find them. It broke my heart. The guide asked us permission to stay a little longer so she could help the old lady. When a tour guide who can speak the old lady's dialect came, our guide passed on the old lady's problem. According to our guide, there are four, more or less if I remember right, car parks and they all look alike. The old lady couldn't remember which carpark she came from. Our guide told us that the reason she asked us to walk back the same way at the wall is because after a while, everything will look the same. It'll be easy to end up another section.
So, we went to this restaurant for lunch. Of course there was a lot of food. I ate a lot.
There's a gift shop at the other side and the guide was almost pulling us out from shop because we still have loads more to do. Then I saw the old lady who got lost there. She's been found and her sister was fuming mad. Apparently, they've been for her for hours. Lol! All's well.
Next stop is the Temple of Heaven.
