Day 0 - All set for tomorrow

Arrived at the town of Moshi today(base camp). It rained a bit but then cleared up. The picture is a view of Mt Kili from my hotel.

We should be at the Machame gate(starting point of the ascend) at approx 10am (1 am CST). We will hike for 6-7 hrs through the rain forrest - and are planning to get soaked (it has rained pretty much everyday in the last few weeks). Temperature wise - its nice and warm .. Therefore we will be in T-shirt, shorts (and a poncho)

Overall - everything is set.. We have our gear, camera, energy bars, trail mix and all of us are in high spirits.

Remember us in your prayers... More from me tomorrow...
