Vacation time! On August 14th, Martin and I packed our luggage and camping gear to head out on our first camping trip to the Adirondack Mountains in Wilmington, New York (close to Lake Placid).

Lukas, as the master DJ,  discovered some classics and we listened to, among others, Inner Circle's hits . Fortunately, the road to Gerlachov was not that long. The view on the High Tatras from our room was great even at freezing night. As usual, Lukas brought some materials to read. Our avalanche bible by Bruce Tremper and some other relevant books. I really enjoyed reading the book by Mišo Diviak - Bujón v šumienke  - over the whole trip. The next morning we got up early, made great egg omelette for breakfast and on our way to Starý Smokovec we saw city of Poprad waking up.
