Day 1 in Tanzania - Dar es Salam to Moshi


5 am start to beat the rush hour in Dar, boarded our coach - Kilimanjaro express for the 10 hour trip north to Moshi . Travelled at hair raising speed over roads under construction or needing reconstruction! 



Arrived in one piece at our hotel at the foot of Kilimanjaro. Nakara Safari lodge, a  nice hotel with a view of the mountain if it were not misty. 



The temperature had dropped noticeably and during our briefing the guide mentioned that the summit is around minus 20 with windchill at the moment! 

Just packed our rucksacks with all the warm clothes we have. Hoping for good weather over the next few days. 


I've seen this logo somewhere before! 

Heading of at 8am tomorrow for our first days climbing. 

All excited and a little aprehensive about the weather.
