Wow – were we really on the top of
Kilimanjaro yesterday? Already seems so
long ago! We had a reprieve from the
rain and after packing up, we said our thanks and farewell to the army of
porters that made it all possible. They
said goodbye by singing us a traditional song and once again Jerome started the
dance party and pulled us in to join. I
said a few words of gratitude on behalf of the group, shook each porter’s hand
and we were off once again for a three hour hike to the Mweka Gate. Hey, they sell Kilimanjaro beer right at the
park exit! We shared a round with our
guides and boarded the bus back to Moshi.
Shower, dry out our soggy gear, walk down the street from some
souvenirs, back for dinner with Clara and Aylet, then a beer with Chris and
Ursula. Good byes said, hugs and
handshakes – time to pack and hit the hay… off to Zanzibar tomorrow from some
fun in the sun. Wow, what an amazing
trek!
