Me and Tiann gettin ready to go on the Hike! So apparently the word hike in china means just a bunch of stairs!! I'm thinking... why didn't anyone tell me this! So we started hiking on this little path and we thought...hey this will be pretty easy! :) well so we climbed up this big rock and started taking pictures but when we got down and walked around the corner...oh boy! did we see what we really got ourselves into! I was thinking to myself.."You have GOT to be kidding me!!?"
So when we walked around thet corner we saw the FIRST set of stairs we were going to hike up and it was going to be like this all the way up! it was awful! The chinese girl we went with (Gloria) said it was an estimate of over two thousand stairs! shoot me now! i didn't sign up for this! ;) it was a three hour hike (2 hours up and an hour down) the reason why it was only an hour down because on the way down there was hardly any stairs and mostly a rough path. but still!
So Tiann and i took a million pictures that day because we needed so many breaks! lol everytime we stopped to catch our breathe we took more pictures so we didn't look weak! After the first 3 things of stairs thats when we started taking tons of pics! Tiann and I were completely dead after the first thing of stairs.... only 1,899 stairs left to go! :) p.s. this was the WORST idea we ever had! It was really smoggy that day but when we got to the top it was beautiful! thats when it was worth it! When we got to the top there was a little chinese temple so that was kinda cool. I guess people hike up there all the time to worship and to their Ti Chi (aka yoga) and Gloria said that mountain is where they make the soilders run up the stairs... I could barley walk let a lone run them! but it was actually way fun! :) they asked if we wanted to do it again sometime... i said i would think about it!!! that may be a once in a life time thing! lol
