Kilimanjaro Trip - 2019
Happy Birthday to me! The big Five-0! As a present to myself I decided to book an epic adventure - climb Mt. Kilimanjaro - 19,341 feet - the roof of Africa! It's been on my bucket list for a while and I wanted to do it before all the glaciers melt - and I got too old! I booked an add-on adventure to trek up to the Mountain Gorillas in Uganda, then a couple days in Zanzibar over New Years to relax after. Time for adventure!
