Kilimanjaro 7 September 2007

The descent from Mweka Camp is through rain forest. The garden furniture passes us (again) on the way down.

Most people seem intent on getting down as quickly as possible. The propsect of hot showers is enticing but there's so much beauty to be seen if you're not in too much of a hurry to stop and take it in, including some, such as the impatiens kilimanjaro that are unique to the mountain.


Our route has taken us round the south side of the mountain.












We celebrate our return to civilisation with a hot shower and a meal in Moshi. It's Jo's 25th birthday and in the evening David has organised a cake for her.
