Kilimanjaro Part Two... loria did it!!!

Post by lprof »

A few years ago, loria posted this thread:

Now, the departure day for heading to Africa is soon come. Lori is a very brave woman, who is going for the adventure while raising funds for a charity.

If you are reading this post, how about wishing her well, and in a few months look for her book... How a neurotic old lady walked up a big hill. :wink:

Best of luck and good fortune, Lori! Looking forward to hearing all about it!

This from loria tonight...

"Day 3 – Shira to Barranco
Well, the team passed a critical climbing day with flying colours.

We reached a height of 15,100ft and then descended to 13,077ft. No headaches, no nausea, lots of singing and good appetites."
