Arriving at the Impala Hotel, Moshi, this evening, I'm impressed and mindful of the contrast between today's travel and that of last year's. No nine hour coach ride on the dirt tracks from Nairobi, no hold up at JRO (Kilimanjaro International Airport), all bags and persons accounted for and the cold and bitter winter well and truly left behind as we stepped onto African soil in temperatures of 30 degrees plus. While some of the more 'mature' in our party wanted to go off and play in the bar or by the pool, I've opted for a decent shower, shave and bed ready for the day ahead tomorrow along with a bit of quiet reflection on the day's star turns and funny moments.
A highlight? Comparing notes with the girls from Phones4U at the back of the plane on how odd some of our fellow travellers all seemed to be! All pumped up (some quite literally by the size of their arses!) and raring to go!
