Dougie’s Diary Pre Kilimanjaro

Hi folks

Check out the photos of our walk on Sunday morning, James Beckley, Troy Gerrity and I walked to 3,200 meters above sea level. We are so lucky to have the majestic mount Teide on our doorstep. The main reason for the walk was to see how we acclimatised to an environment with 20% less oxygen. I can gladly say none of us showed any signs of altitude sickness, especially as we knocked back the hot chocolate mixed with Brandy or Whisky or both at 3,200 meters!!! It is so beautiful our mountain, an incredible experience was had by all. Thank you to all the people who have sponsored me, I do need a lot more though so please click on the link below.

On a personal note my beautiful wife and Rafa are doing so well, he is always laughing, I am going to miss them so much when I travel to Kilimanjaro.

Talk soon my friends
