This is what Mt. Kilimanjaro looks like in our dry, Winter season. This photo was taken as we travelled towards the city - along a wide dirt road, about 15 minutes after leaving the farm. Her peak does not have that much snow on it at the moment. Even after so many years of seeing this magnificent mountain, and living in her shadow, I'm still always amazed by the fact that you can stand in the middle of the arid, hot African bush surrounded by wild game and look up and see a snow capped peak ! But as I've said before - that's Africa for you. A continent of contrasts.
