We have a highway, and it has a sign xthousand feet high. Never made a difference to me. We have TONS of mountains here. I am in the most northern part of NJ. NY, NJ, PA all meet at one point. I can actually stand in 3 states! It is up on a mountain, and there is a monument. Our claim to fame. lol!<br /><br />I know Denver, and Colorado aare REALLY high! Congratulations to you for doing that, and taking an AWESOME picture!!<br /><br />Mt. Everest can wait!!!

It made all the difference in the world! (Except I had to visit the washroom of each observatory we were going to!) The astronomers told me that even if you don't normally get sick, sometimes you will - and they do - totally unpredictable but the water REALLY helps.<br /><br />Lovely painting!EVAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00325054853569129751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5636758286078475071.post-87111501063691432972011-04-07T05:34:53.506-07:002011-04-07T05:34:53.506-07:00Never experienced Altitude sickness.

It fun though because I get to "zoom zoom" like a Mazda commercial as speed limits are 50ish in most places. I love it! The one thing we did notice was that our hands swelled up when we moved here and we had to have our wedding rings resized. My theory is at elevation the pressure on our bodies is lighter and it allows for more fluid retention. We used to live at sea level and on most days our rings would fall off. Good enough theory, huh!

Just a few in the alps and in Israel. Here I live in the Rhine valley, which is flat and green and anything over 300 feet is huge!
