Day 32 – Happy Birthday to my daughter Evelyn from the Great Wall of China!

By bogaert

Today is the birthday of my beloved daughter Evelyn! She turns 13 … and I am not at home. I really wish her a great birthday, happy birthday my dear Evelyn! Love you! I feel very sad that I am unable to share this day with you! Megan captured me on a small video with wishes from the Great Wall. Hope you like it!

Today one of us had to leave unexpectedly due to the expiration of the visa. The hotel staff draws the attention on the pending expiration today and it seems impossible to extend the current visa on short notice. Four of us remained in Beijing and we rented a driver to visit the Great Wall and the Ming Tombs. It was quite cold and very windy whilst walking on the Great Wall, in particular compared to the temperatures we were exposed to in Xiamen. It was a difficult day, but I enjoyed the views and being accompanied by my great friends. Enjoy the photos!

Happy Birthday Evelyn!
