Every part of the great wall that tourists go to has been rebuilt in the recent years. All repairable.

Interesting things do happen from time to time. In this case, a handful of people got excited about the whole scene after waiting on the plane for 3 hours and they reacted to it in a friendly way. I wonder if the performers would have felt more welcomed and appreciated should everyone was sitting cool and cold.

Flash photography at Disney performances was annoying and could cause harm to performers which is equally inconsiderate and ignorant, if not more, to some parts of the Great Wall that are covered with graffiti, names and phrases scrawled in English and French, worse yet, they are irreparable…

If he/she was, I would enjoy the performence instead of recording it so I can have 1/10th of the enjoyment later. Kind of why watching someone sing on youku isn’t the same as live.

Go to HK disney and see the performences, the no flash photography sign is a good laugh. Had the plane’s cabin been any darker I’m sure the musicians would be blinded.

I’m shocked they even clapped
