Kilimanjaro: Grom & Team Arrive in Tanzania

Hello from Tanzania,
All is well here in Tanzania and most of the team arrived late in the evening yesterday after some very long flights. It was a short and uneventful ride to our Lodge that is nestled in between Arusha and Moshi and not so far from the base of Kilimanjaro.
We had a very early morning today (3:30am) as there were several of us wanting to see the college football playoff. And so we had our first official meeting at 8am where we did a round of introductions and then discussed the upcoming program for the days ahead. We also addressed all the gear, the packing and our overall game plan for the trip.
The team spent the remainder of the day getting our gear organized, taking naps and exploring the grounds of our beautiful lodge, which is incredibly peaceful and has monkeys running around keeping us entertained.
We have just wrapped up the evening with a delicious meal and plenty of friendly conversations. Everyone is doing well and excited to hit the trail tomorrow and get a little bit of exercise.
