I spent the past two weeks in Tanzania climbing Kilimanjaro. Let me tell you, that was quite the experience. Never have I been awed so much. Just when I would think, ‘it cannot get any more magnificent than this I would stumble upon something else that would awe me. The landscape, the wildlife and...
Picture of the day is of me on the roof of Africa this past Tuesday. A dream come true for me. All the best to you & yours. Thanks for stopping by. Peace, Dh 03/17/2011
Today is the day! I leave for Tanzania in a few hours. It’s strange to wrap my mind around the reality of this. For so many years I yearned for this adventure. It has arrived! How surreal. I thank each of you for your prayers, support and friendship. So many of you have shown...
One day before I head out to you know where. I’ve spent most of the day just tying up loose ends. Picked up a few item last minute items, cleaned up the house, washed my car, hung some prayer flags with Mr. Gypsy at the dairy farm. Everything is just about ready for tomorrow’s...
Here is a video of my gear that I’m taking to Tanzania for my Kilimanjaro trip. It sure seems like a heck of a lot of stuff, eh? Yes, it does. Some how, I managed to fit it all in my backpack, minus the laptop, that is. Wow. It’s here! Wow. I can hardly...
So, here we are. Just two days from departure to Tanzania. Mr. Gypsy and I have tested out our gear and packed our bags. We are almost ready for a trip of a life time. I’ve packed and repacked a few times now and finally, I think I have it. I’m just curious. The...
Three more days, wow. It begins this Sunday. Amazing and unbelievable still. Today was my last day at work until March 23rd. This will mark my longest vacation (and time off of work ever). It’s going to be awesome. I am so stoked. It’s finally here. It is surreal. This afternoon I had lunch...
Four more days and I’m off to Tanzania to embark on a childhood dream, climb Kilimanjaro! Very exciting stuff but also very time consuming in planning & getting things together. Thank God that Thomson Safari works out the all of the logistics. If they didn’t I would have lost my mind and quit on...
Well, My trip to Tanzania draws closer! I’ve now been turned into a pin cushion with all of the shots I’ve gotten. Believe me, I do not like injections! I hate them with a passion. They are like the worse things ever. I’ve gotten the following vaccinations: typhoid polio flu shot yellow fever tetanus...
So, I picked up my altitude and anti-malarial meds over the weekend. On Tuesday morning I go to the Chatham County Health Department on Eisenhower and get vaccinations for: polio, typhoid and yellow fever. Later this week, on Thursday, I see my doctor for a tetanus shot and to probably begin the hepatitis a/b...
