Hello Everyone,
Just to let you all know that in six hours’ time we will be leaving Kibo hut to ascend to the Kilimanjaro summit.
The walk in total will take around 12-15hours and it will be done in freezing conditions.
We are leaving at 10pm tonight and expect to be back by morning. We are all in good spirits but feeling a little fragile,
We’ll update the blog some more when we reach the bottom.
Love to all, God speed ;) LOL
Good Luck guys, take care on the way up and even more importantly on the way down. Alfie will be pleased to reach the top, and Whiston Staff will look forward to seeing you all back safely.
ReplyDeleteGood Luck, God Bless,
Jonathan, on behalf of whiston hospital pediatric department.

Hi Kili Guys
ReplyDeleteDesperate to hear that you are all ok and safely down! Hope it all went ok and you are well, exhausted no doubt, but celebrating! No injuries, no frostbite! We can't wait to hear all about it and see the photos.
Latest message from Janet on her hols....
"Hi Kili Boys.
Not sure where you are up to but you must be nearly there by now. Keep focused and remember what you are doing this for and the little man that fuelled it all, our gorgeous Alfie bear! I promise to buy you a pint when you get home. Stay safe and warm, take care
Loads of love
Janet xxxxxx"
Looking forward to your next blog so that the celebrations can commence!
Our thoughts are with you and your families who must be frantically waiting to hear from you.
You are our heros in the true sense of the word! Heros!
Lots and lots of love
