Live update – Jenny left Darlington at 5pm on Friday April 16th and arrived in China on Sunday afternoon (morning in the UK). Travelling on the new Emirates Airbus Jenny said ” It was very nice but the landings made everyone reach for their sickbags including me it was realy awful!”
Day One – Due to high winds and sandstorms from the Gobi Desert the section of wall Jenny had been due to climb was closed therefore they had to climb a “harder route”. Jenny said it was farily touristy as it had been renovated but was a very steep five hour climb.
After a tiring first day and no blisters to report Jenny had earned her evening meal. She said “I’m pleased we are doing a lot of walking as the food is lovely and there is oodles of it!”
