Great Wall Of China



The Great Wall Of China (not to be confused with our wonderful agency, Great Wall China Adoption) is 4500 miles long, the biggest man-made structure in the world. It can be seen from outer space. Amazingly, construction began about 2200 years ago. At a pace of 10 miles per day, it would take about 15 months to walk the entire length of the wall... which, ironically, is about the time our journey to Kavanna will take us, assuming a 10 month post DTC wait and another two months before we travel. We started this journey in September 2005 and hope to be in China in December 2006. This might be overly optimistic but our fingers are crossed.
