Kilimanjaro Day 3 | National Park

The #NowClimbing Cybercast | Live Updates from Nick Symmonds' 7 Summit Adventure

Hello Calling with an update from Arusha National Park. Today was our first full day in Africa and it was an awesome one. We woke up and the weather was absolutely perfect. About 60 and sunny this morning. We had an awesome breakfast, a full English Breakfast here and then we went into Arusha National Park near Mount Meru and Safaried for a couple hours. We saw so many animals; Zebra, giraffe, water buffalo, baboons... You Name It. We got about probably about 20 feet away from a giraffe. Just pretty incredible. Had a little lunch next to a lake overlooking Mount Kilimanjaro. It was kind of our first view of the mountain. It is really clear day and then safaried a little bit more before coming back to check our gear, repack and meet our guide. And so we're a team of 6, we're repacked. We're ready to go. I've had a really nice dinner and we're going to leave at 8:30 in the morning to go to the Mt. Kilimanjaro National Park. And in into the park, will start climbing probably about 11am.
