Jan. 21-27

You have the opportunity for one day to take an all expense paid trip to either Stonehenge or The Great Wall of China. Which do you choose and why? Stonehenge would be fascinating because we don't know why it’s there, it’s a mystery of why it was built but the Great Wall of China is also fascinating and we know the reason it was built. I think that I would choose the Great Wall of China. Going someplace that has meaning and history has greater value to me than some place that only has mystery.  The Great Wall of China was built to protect a way of life it has great significant. Not just for its history but what it represents. It represents a great effort to protect freedoms and values from the power and authority of others.  So it represents a great unified effort to do just that. Besides the fact that china is farther away and you would see more going there then to the Stonehenge, so for that reason I would choose China and the Great Wall. Also from a money stand point it would cost more to go to China so maybe in the future I would be able to pay my own way to Stonehenge and then I would of gone to both.
