The guide of the 7 Summits Club Olga Rumyantseva reports from Tanzania:

 Greetings to all from Tanzania from the Russian crocodiles group!  Today we had a difficult day. We had to climb to the Lava Tower camp at an altitude of 4600 meters, and then go down to Barranco camp, which is located at an altitude of 3900 meters.

The weather decided to add its own difficulties to the difficulties of the march. Already somewhere in the middle of the way, clouds caught up with us. And then we went into the drizzle clouds.  And while we were having lunch, it started raining heavily. So then we walked in the rain for several hours and got wet. That did not prevent us from enjoying the beautiful route and unusual plants.

And today we have a special evening event. One member of our group, Victor, has a birthday today. So in the evening we had a birthday cake.
