The best nights sleep I’ve had during this expedition!! Flat out and didn’t wake until woken by the coffee man. Tash less so, said she was stressing over John (and Pauline).
We were advised they were both in camp so we got sorted a bit slap dash as we knew we didn’t need to save clothes for the following day and we’re in our way home!!
We were all sorted before breakfast and made our way to the Mess tent to catch up with everyone and have our last breakfast together.
Then we sorted each other out, swung on our back packs and set out on our way. It was about 10km and they said would be 4 hrs and John and Pauline only needed to get to the rangers lodge and then there was a road and the could travel down in a jeep. Only problem was, as we found out, this wasn’t close by and was still a tough 3hrs for everyone to get down from the camp.
It was a long walk and we chatted with the guys and it was interesting getting back into the rain forest zone and the views of the mountain were good. Lots of people passing us going both up and down. I was glad I was on the downward journey!!
We got to the jeep point but the others didn’t catch us up even thought we waited ages so we carried on. Finally making it to the last gate to signify that we’d completed the expedition, was a great feeling.
Took photos of course and celebrated with everyone that came through. Bit sad that it was over.
