Well here it is! The start of my blog and what promises to be the adventure of a lifetime. So please do bookmark me, add me or do whatever it is you do and I will give the real story about climbing Kilimanjaro. Every blister every ache and pain.....every low point and every success.......
I have been working through my kitlist this week and EBay has indeed been taking a pounding! Just waiting on a sleeping bag (dont worry Pete, I have taken the plunge and bought one!) and a new camera....oh and a pair of fleece lined trousers.......and a big bag to put it all in.......mozzy spray.......lip balm......AARRRRRGGGHhhhhhh the list is endless!
I will not lie to you all, I am at this moment feeling physically sick with the thought of what is to come, I know that my legs will do it, my mind is absolutly focused on it, but still when you are doing something that you have never done before, butterflys are always around.....mine just feel like a Russian shotputters weapon of choice!
Lip Balm! Russ are you climbing a mountain or putting on a fashion show? Or both? Now that would be worth seeing!
ReplyDeleteBest of luck with the climb mate, just don't break your ankle at base camp.
