Climb Ev’ry Mountain

Morogoro Town lies at the base of the Uluguru Mountains.  This past weekend, I hiked with some friends up into the Uluguru Mountains to Morningside, which is an old German building.  The mountains were gorgeous and reminded me a lot of the fields I hiked through in the Andes. I loved see how the crops and vegetation changed as we gained altitude.  Here are some pics from the hike!
