Day 2

Guy Radford July 28th, 2010

Today was ment to be an 8 hour walk. We were woke up at 6:30 with tea in bed followed by a bowl of hot water for washing and porage, sausage and egg for breakfast.

At 8:30 we set of pole pole (Swahili for slowly,  pronounced poly poly). We kept stopping for wee an drinks. At 3600 meters we stopped for lunch soup followed by pasta. At this point venessa was not feeling well and suffering from the altitude, she was being sick. We kept going and she did well to kepp going too. But we were getting slower and slower. Venessa was needing more and more help. We finally made it to camp at around 8 pm nealy 12 hours after we set out! We were all shatterd and suffering from exastion. After a small dinner we all went to bed early.

We all woke up the next day feeling much better and ready for today’s climb to 4200 meters.
