I got my photos uploaded to facebook (finally) and I'll upload all of them to shutterfly or some other service that will let you look at them without creating an account....but here are a few highlights.......
This is from my camp on the 2nd night and was the first time we were above the clouds and could see Kilimanjaro. The coming days would take me toward the base and then around to the right side before summiting.
My porters would set up my tent and a little table for my meals. If you have a big group they bring a mess tent, but since it was just me, this was my set up. After this camp it was too cold to sit outside so I would eat in my tent.
A beautiful sunset
Sunrise while I was summiting Kili....I had been climbing for about 6 hours by this point.
Once we got to the top, we could see some of the famous, and shrinking, glaciers
I finally made it to the very top--Uhuru peak.
A few more views of the glaciers as we walked back to Stella's point before descending.
In Ngorogoro crater, in one of the few places you can get out of the car,we enjoyed watching the hippos.
Two wildebeests play around.
We had a visitor to our camp....and she drank a lot of water. We ran out by the next morning.

I love my hippos--but in this hippo pool, they're disgustingly dirty.
A herd of elephants come to the water point where we're parked.
And line up to take a drink. I don't think they were feeling photogenic.
