Today, September 25, is officially the first day of the expedition of the 7 Summits Club and company 8000.guide to Pakistan.  The team led by Alexander Abramov, who was named "Maria Ivanovna", had a great day in Islamabad today.

All arrived, all things flew. Checked the equipment - found the missing. We visited the largest mosque in Southeast Asia, visited the monument to those who died for the freedom of Pakistan, went to the bazaar and finished the day at the Kabul restaurant with delicious kebabs.Alexander Kharchenkov also had a birthday today. Which we cheerfully celebrated on the roof of our hotel. The team gave him a gift. Everyone had a lot of fun. Tomorrow we leave in the direction of Nanga Parbat.  Adventures and dangers begin. Hurray!

 Addition: By tradition in Pakistan, all people are very friendly and polite, many happily ask to take a selfie with strangers. Therefore, our movement around the city was slow, but solemn. Everyone was very satisfied with a wonderful day.

President of the 7 Summits Club Alexander Abramov reports from Pakistan:

Project 8000.guide of the 7 Summits Club in action.  Today, the first part of the team arrived in Pakistan. And after a short rest, we went climbing. To the nearest mountain.  In 2.5 hours we gained 1000m. It began to rain wildly and a thunderstorm began.  But the team continued climbing.  After that, we decided to call the team "Wet in the Dark". We're soaked to the skin. Lightning flashed every second. Such a test turned the team into a Monolith!
