First and the highest.

Here it is. My first blog post. Quite late, isn't it? I wasn't going to post at all, at least for a moment I would have had to say something really important. But all that buzz about Web 2.0 and Blogger is one of the example, why not to take part in that kind of quick evolution of Internet (don't think it's revolution).

Hey! Don't read anymore, I still have nothing to say. :)

I hope that will change sometime later, since I have to have something to say. I've being in mountains just a week ago. The highest peak of the Europe - Elbrus - that something worthy of huge blog post.
Well..., I'll say something - Wow, it was really cool (BTW, -10C in July is cooler than usual). That was the first top we screamed, not just showed a smile on tired faces. Elbrus wasn't first one, we had some quite interesting climbs during that vacation, good adaptation to the altitude. Probably that's the reason we climbed the highest point so quickly - 6 hours from the base camp.
One of the best vacations I ever had. Forget your office chair, drop you PC out of the window. Go outdoor, far from parkings and malls. Be native (but don't forget your technological toys, they bring some comfort which in turn brings some additional satisfaction) and you won't forget it for the rest of your life. Even if it can become shorter as a consequence. :)

Enough for the first time. Just couple more pictures.
