Day 3
Waking up above the clouds is the best feeling! After checking out the breath taking view we headed to the food lodge for another large breakfast. The lodge was filled with chubby little mice that looked like chipmunks; they ran around the hut eating every crumb that dropped! They are referred to as the plague of Kilimanjaro, but they looked cute.
We stayed at Horumbo an extra day to hike to Zebra rock. Staying at this altitude for the extra day helps your body to acclimatize and increases your chance of making it to the summit. As we went along the trail the fog would quickly roll in and it was hard to see.
After our day hike we headed back for dinner and then went to bed early to get ready for our big hike to Kibo Hut.
