Rather stiff

16/7/11

Waking for the final time in a tent we were again somewhat stiff and very smelly. Whilst James was regularly changing his clothes I had opted not to bother deciding instead to ware all of them at once in a vain effort to keep warm at night. After a final breakfast of homemade spring rolls we set off for the four hour downhill trek. At the end point was a welcome sight of the minivan and our mountaineering experience drew to a close.

After a two hour drive back to Seniggigi we rolled into where we were staying. For once a hot bath would have been welcomed but alas the best we could muster was a cold shower. The filth that came off us necessitated a 5 minute cold shower. Bliss it was not but being clean was an improvement! By sunset (6pm) we were thinking about sleeping but managed to sustain ourselves to the heady time of 8pm before collapsing into bed exhausted.
