After getting pretty burned out providing the financial analysis and budgeting on a large HIV grant proposal, I decided to take a last-second vacation. I had a couple of things in mind (park ranger training, Great White Shark dive), but what finally worked out was hiking Kilimanjaro. I contacted a few tour companies, got some quotes, and about five days later was on my way to Tanzania. I’ll write a more complete travelogue later, but here are a few shots from the trip. I don’t have any from the top (who knew cameras could freeze solid?), but I should have a more complete photo narrative after the members of my hiking group finish trading our shots. It was not that difficult a hike from a technical perspective, and I would recommend it to anyone who wants a unique African experience.

Details... we want details! Glad you made it back safe and looking forward to hearing more about your hike.
Awesome mountain pics. We missed you at the family reunion, but you got a handsome place on the kermit-green reunion shirts that everyone in Ithaca has been talking about.
