Kilimanjaro team holding up their summit certificates (Phunuru)
The Kilimanjaro team had a smooth descent from the summit, yesterday, down to the Mweka Camp. This morning they were up early and finished off the descent ion a few hours of hiking back to the Mweka Gate.  Then, they headed back to Moshi, stopping to do some shopping along the way in the local market.
After getting cleaned up, packed up and maybe enjoying a beer or two this afternoon,  the team had  a celebration dinner with their local Chagga guides. Tomorrow they are departing about 8am for Arusha, from where they are scheduled to fly to the Serengeti, for the beginning of their safari. So far so good!
