We’ve been in Moshi for nearly three days now and have still not caught a glimpse of Mount Kilimanjaro. I had hoped to climb the highest mountain in Africa but my ear’s still not right. Instead, I’d settle for the opportunity to take a good photograph of it. Alas, it’s an elusive bugger and hasn’t shown its face yet.

We’re leaving tomorrow to go see some lions and stuff (we’re really excited about this), so we’ll return to Moshi in a few days time to see if the weather has cleared-up enough to allow us a view.

UPDATE: With unbelievable luck, the clouds have parted and I am dining atop a hotel, with surely one of the best views in the world.
