Kilimanjaro Update 7

9/19

Eric:
It is 5:30 in the morning, another hour and we will be starting our day with coffee and tea. Breakfast at 7:30 and then we begin our ascent to barafu camp.

Sitting around eating breakfast. Cream of wheat, crepes, fruit, tea and coffee. In a little bit we will begin our ascent to high base camp at 15000ft

Camp 5- 12pm, 15000ft. lunch and then rest. We will then have supper at 5pm, rest and then we begin our ascent to the summit at midnight. Everyone is well.

We have eaten supper and we are all in our tent by 6:30pm. We will be up in 5 hours for breakfast and to begin our climb. Please remember this is not just about us climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro but a climb with a purpose to raise funds for AFCA so that kids can grow up and make a difference so have strength to face other challenges.

Randi:
Hi to my parents. Little short of breath but very excited about summiting.
