I'd read so much about how "all you need is the ability to walk" to summit Kilimanjaro. After doing it, I think being mentally tough is every bit as much of a requirement.<br /><br />Congratulations on your Kili climb as well! I'm glad I stumbled upon your Twitter feed and blog. I'm enjoying reading your blog, especially your post about preparing for the trip.

Falling alseep as I went, looking to entertain my mind, etc. I cannot believe someone is, um, "dense" enough to smoke a cigarette on this climb. The visit at the top was all too brief and though I had my photo taken, I didn't think to review it to see if it came out well. That sign is only made to have a photo taken in one angle so the yellow letters show up on the green background - who came up with THAT scheme?!! But in the end, nothing takes away having made it - congrats to you and your group!Raul (@ilivetotravel in Twitter)http://ilivetotravel.menoreply@blogger.com
