If you were to ask us what we did on Wednesday...

We would say, ¨We climbed a mountain.¨ And that´s exactly what we did.

In the morning, Kim and Emily joked about this alleged ¨hike,¨ because we presumed it would be a leisurely walk along a well-paved path for a few hours. We were wrong.... so wrong. What started off as a nice nature-esque walk turned into to full-out rock climbing adventure (we have pictures to prove) . It was aweome and well worth it. The view from the top was breathtaking, and unfortunately, those pictures cannot do it justice. 7 1/2 hours, approximately 20 kilometers, a few ¨short-cuts¨ that resulted in cuts when the rocks slipped out from under us, 3 granola bars, and 6 sore arms and legs later, we arrived back from our venture.

We´re slowly teaching ourselves how to walk again.

Here are a few pics of the mountain we climbed:

And here are a few pics of the spectacular view we enjoyed as we climbed (note that the pictures do not do it justice):

(See the little plot of green land in the back? That's where we started, and this picture was taken about 1/3 of our way into the journey up the mountain.)
