In the Shadow of Mt. Ararat

We've been in Yerevan for a day now. Parts of the city are quite beautiful, but it is difficult to notice when the sky is clear and the 5,000 something meter tall Mt. Ararat is lording over you. We leave for Karabagh tomorrow, finally. It is something of the centerpeice of our trip and I am anxious to finally see it. Greg and I have been talking about our thoughts so far. We have alot of impressions and elements to convey, but puting it all into a cohesive picture is still difficult. Into the mountains we go!

Inspired by your post, I did some "google-ing" on Mt. Ararat and learned some pretty interesting things, such as...

...Ararat is the bastardized name of Urartu

...Mount Ararat may be the largest single-mass or volume mountain in the world

...many people believe that Mount Ararat is the place where Noah's Ark landed

Aren't you proud? Glad to hear from you and can't wait to see your pictures!
