Hi, everybody... I'm back from deepest, darkest Africa.
It was tough, but I'm happy to report that I successfully made it to the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro (uh huh huh, "mount"), the highest point in Africa, 19,340 feet above sea level. It took us 6 days to climb it. A lot of rock scrambling, no ropes.
Other things that may interest the folks in this NG:
My tent-mate was from Virginia Beach... he didn't know Gary M. though.
Gary, you'll be interested to know that among other perils we had to endure on the climb were safari ants... they'll climb up your legs and they bite.
After the climb, we went on safari looking at animals, and saw blue-balled monkeys.
We saw a male elephant chasing after a female elephant in heat. He had a schlong so big that it looked like he had 5 legs! An elephant's schlong weighs 40 to 50 pounds.
Good trip, but good to be back.
