Ever wondered about the majestic Mount Kilimanjaro? Wondered what it would be like to climb Africa's highest mountain?
Kerry and her son returned from Africa in early 2020, mere weeks before COVID radically changed everyone's daily lives. Kerry stopped her usual activities - working at her part-time job, seeing friends, doing laps at the local pool.... Because these routine distractions were unavailable, it was an opportunity for her to take scraps of notes about their trek and begin writing. Kerry took her small travel journal and decided to bring to life their eight day trek. What was it really like each day as they made their way to the summit? What did they encounter during the day and what was it like in camp each night? What was it like as they made the final push to the top?
