The team made up by Raúl Martínez, Adrián Ucles and Carlos Pauner arrived without problem today in Islamabad. They are staying in the Blue Area, at the same hotel as in the year 2007. This is an area of the Pakistani capital with a high level of security.
Islamabad is a city with few tourist attractions, but a necessary step before setting off on their trip towards Karakorum. Raúl, Adrián and Carlos together with the trekkers who are accompanying them must only stay in this city the time that is strictly necessary. Raúl commented that the restaurant that they used to go to called ‘Luna Capresse’ has been re-opened after suffering a brutal attack.
There is a clear message: after each blow one must get up and carry on. It is the only way to feel alive.
Tomorrow will be a day of rest in which the ministries will be closed and our friends will not be able to do much. They will relax after their journey and take the opportunity to adapt to the contrast of this unusual country.
