Day 7 Summit
A few minutes after 5pm GMT +3, thirteen exhausted hikers stood on uhuru peak, Africa's highest point. We were all emotional in our own way but the tears in Lois's eyes captured the wonder we all felt. Her first words to me as we approached the peak said it all: "we did it darling, we did it. I can't believe we did." And so we did with the help of hidden hands that had crafted this mountain ages past and now lifted 13 determined hikers to it's glorious summit.
