Bougie AF wraps up Kilimanjaro

Hi everyone,

Happy Holidays to you all!

A few pics from our trip. I will say the summit night was one of the coldest I have had on my many trips up Kilimanjaro! Despite the cold and the freezing ice and rime, we persevered!

Yesterday we returned to Arusha, basked in showers and slept in beds. We all enjoyed a celebration dinner together! The bougieness continues. My thanks to a wonderful team for a great week on the mountain together!
