Morning day 4. Everyone has had a s*** night. Heartbeat racing.vice like headache. Very cold. Feeling sick. Sun up this morning. Views over Kenya just awe inspiring. What will today bring! X
End of day 4. 6 hours of hard treking towards kilimanjaro across a lunar landscape. Finishing at 4700 meters at kibo hut below the route to the peak. Everyone has a few headaches , and life at this altitude is very uncomfortable. Nausia, vomiting, bit what a view. Godwin has just walked me 100 meters above the camp to see if it clears and he has just gone back down to get rest of the team to join me.
I am sitting here by myself, the highest person on the mountain, with probably only a few higher than me in the whole world, with the most unbeleivable view you could imagine looking back across the Saddle to Mawenzie . You could cut the silence with a knife.. its emotional - its silent - the depth of feeling is deeper than I have ever felt before - looking at the face of God. I wish you all could be sitting here. Hopefully Godwin will let me have a go at the top.if so ETD is 2400 hrs. Everyone in good spirits. Godwin is fantastic. Peter is a legend, Ian is the main man, Kathleen is awesome, Joe and brownie are absolutely imense, and Andrew is a film star. Keep positive thought for us all. X
