Our Journey-Day Two


...but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. 
They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, 
they will walk and not be faint. 
(Isaiah 40:31 NIV)

This is my prayer for tomorrow! We all need renewed strength after jet lag and sightseeing! Today was a wonderful day of seeing some amazing sights and eating many different foods. 
I don't think anyone in the group should have trouble sleeping tonight!

I am going to post a few pictures but more will come another day after a little rest!

The group who attempted to climb to the top of the Great Wall
The group who actually survived climbing to the top of this portion of the 
wall and now have the medal to show for it.  

 The day was very hazy and overcast so the photos are not the greatest.
This is truly an amazing sight to behold!
Our day ended with a few more foods that were very interesting.
We shared lots of laughter and many stories with so many new friends today.
What a blessing God has given us! 
We can't wait for tomorrow as we head to another area to love on some 
precious children.

Johanna, I am glad you found me. I will be happy to answer any questions I can. I'm sorry I didn't respond before now. I have been in Ch*na serving at an orphanage this week.
