Day 4 of trekking..................................................................................................


After receiving our pack up which was kindly made by the staff from the lodge we stayed last night, which consisted of a tomato & mayonaise sandwhich, a boiled egg, a piece of cake & a bottle of water we set off for another days trekking. Today we trekked around 10km in 32 c heat again & to start with it was really hard going as it was so humid but once we had reached the higher heights of the wall we did get a bit of a breeze. Today we walked along parts of the wall which had no sides with shear drops both sides! We also had lots of steps to tackle, the vertical steps we had to climb were so steep we were using our hands as well & we named ourselves spider women! By the time we had reached our watchtower to have lunch my sandwhich was looking very sorry for itself & I have to say it was very pleasant to look at or eat but needs must!
