What a day. Up at 1:25am to drive from Maubisse to the car park of Mount Ramelou in time to see the sunrise. The sunrise was never really going to happen as it had been raining since yesterday. The drive took longer than I thought as did the climb. Everyone…

Its hard to believe we only have one week left. We have met so many awesome people and seen and done so many fantastic things. I’m sure we’ll be sad when it’s all over and we hear the last “Are we there yet?” from the back. A few highlights from the trip…
