To: Camp Kenya 04 (3 km from Tanzania border)
Woo hooooo! Did a miles century today - 100 miles in a day! That's the first time I've done that on this trip. Felt great. In fact, I think that's probably the first time I've ever done that in Africa. I've done it in America and Europe, where the days are longer, but never in Africa. So, that felt really good!
Rode by myself most of the day. The 3 new sectional riders from Vancouver (Trina, Donna, and Ruth) caught up with me and we rode together for a little while in the morning. But then they went on and I didn't see them again until camp. I had several stops today, but nothing spectacular happened, from a cultural point of view. For me, the 100-mile day was super cool, though! Rode with Jack (who was sweeping) for the last 50 km (35 miles) or so. I like chatting with him sometimes.
I am very excited because tomorrow I am taking the bus to Arusha in order to be there in time to meet Annett, who is due to arrive at 10:00 a.m. Very happy to be seeing her. Yippeeee!!
