Stairs and Safaris

Seeing as it's now a bit less than 5 months before the trek, it seemed like it might be a good time to start my training.

So I started with stairs.

Not a stair machine. Actual stairs. The kind that can actually take you somewhere.

17 flights of them.

It didn't take that long to go all the way up, and naturally it was pretty quick coming down. And it didn't hurt much either... until the next morning. Ow.

While they rest, I'm settling on what to do post-climb. It'll be a safari in Ngorongo and the Serengeti, and time on Zanzibar. The real decision is between a 4-day or a 5-day safari. The safari will be solo, so I'm spending $$$ on it. Maybe they'll let me drive the land rover. :)
