This morning I woke up and my jaw hit the ground out side my banda. This is why...
Every day I think that Mt. Kilimanjaro can't get any more impressive, but then it snows.
This is the second natural event to be noted in the last twenty four hours. Yesterday around 5:30 golden sunlight was bathing our whole camp and then it started to pour. You could see rain coming down in streaks like someone was pouring buckets of water out of the sky. We saw the rainbow up above us and were marveling at it when it came down from the sky and ended right in the middle of the soccer field in our camp. I could see where is touched the ground. We all just stood laughing and asking each other if it was really there until it finally dissipated and the rain moved on. I could make some corny comment about how we must be in the pot of gold, but I think its pretty obvious that this was quite an event.
Got to go to class and start our Directed Research Projects. We just finnished our other classes and took exams, so we are getting closer and closer to the end of this adventure.
In awe,
Sara
dear sarah, you have connected two special memories, wow what a mountain view, thank you, tears rolled down my cheeks one time when i saw mount baker across the water from the san juans, and years ago in alaska i watched a rainbow approach and right when we were at the pot of gold the rain poured down.we laughed and laughed. i realized that maybe water is the real gold! love don
