Congrats on making it to the top! I think that is the appeal of climbing. You'll have to try it on a real rock next. It is very different. I''ve enjoyed periods of avid climbing and trust is key. Trust in your partner, your equipment, &amp; most importantly trust in yourself. I've actually kissed/been kissed like there's no tomorrow on top of a rock. Was told by her that we could be happy sitting on this rock forever. No longer with that adventurous gal, but  I assume the rock is still there. It's a good thing there are lots of rocks :)  Yes, climbing a hill in Tuscany counts! Enjoy a glass of prosecco to celebrate making it to the top once again. Ciao.
