Kilimanjaro Expedition Dispatch
August 21, 2013 – Celebration at the Mweka Gates
Hello everyone who is following the Berg Adventures dispatch from Kilimanjaro. Today in the morning the group departed from Mweka Camp which is 3,000 m above sea level. We then started to Mweka gate which is 1,800 m above sea level. We took 3 hours to reach the Mweka gate. Now we are at the gate and the group is having a good time celebrating with the local drums. They are enjoying a picnic lunch with a big buffet with many different dishes.
Once we are done the celebration the group will drive back to Arusha where they will have a shower at the Mt. Meru hotel. We will call you later when the group finishes here. But for now thank you!
Reporting from Mweka gates this is Eric Marimbo. Asante Sana!
Listen to Eric's call

I want to thank Berg Adventures for arranging this and we are just so pleased with everything that is happening right now.
