Pre-dawn at Machame camp. Above the sea of clouds.
Friends trying to blow mist into the cold morning air..
Stella point as seen from our campsite.
Ivy trying to take a photo on my tripod.
Our campsite above the clouds.
And the sun rose from behind the peaks of Kilimanjaro..
Panorama of the view around. Enlarge to see properly.
One of the many stops we made on our way up. These stops are the only respite in between the arduous climb from camp to camp..
Group shot. Still looking alive! (at this point..)
Our guides. Climbing is like taking a stroll for them.
On the rocks.
The thin air then gave me such a splitting headache that I stopped taking photos and starting taking painkillers. Every step sent a thump right to my head. I told myself "I'm going to give up. I'm not doing this anymore" with every step I took. But somehow, I reached the next camp..
