The End of the Road

After a week of idleness on Zanzibar, it was finally time to travel north to Nairobi for my flight home. In doing so, I closed my loop around Lake Victoria and also caught a glimpse of Kilimanjaro on the way. Upon seeing the mountain for the first time, I realised why so many people want to climb her. Impressive as Mt Kenya is, Kili is in a different league. She is truly massive and beautifully formed, with a broad, flat snowy summit wearing a halo of clouds. A challenge for next time. Perhaps.
