Getting ready to leave the comforts of the Yak & Yeti and head to the airport for our flight to Lukla and the start of our trekking!
The last of our food & oxygen packing in Kathmandu (KTM)!
Sunset from Karanga camp, 14,000′ on Kilimanjaro, Mt. Meru above the clouds.
We just finished a wonderful 4 night safari in Tanzania, visiting the Serengeti, Tarangire, and Ngorongoro Crater Wildlife parks. We saw so many animals and enjoyed the wonderful Sopa lodges along the way, it was a very relaxing and wonderful experience!
Now we are off to Kilimanjaro to begin our first day hike up to the Machame Camp. Our plan is to spend a total of 6 nights and 7 days on Kili climbing to the top and back down. We are looking forward to climbing through the rainforest, mooreland, alpine desert, and ice cap zones on the mountain. I will be using the RainOn tracking system so you can follow our climb up to the top of the mountain!
