Day Four

On the way down I "skied" down most of the way on the loose dirt and scree, about half way down I met up with another student on his way down and after about three hours we reached Kibo, we found that all of the students who had turned back in the middle of the night had already gone down to Horombo.I was feeling very tired by now and was almost falling asleep just siting in my chair, I ate a mars bar, packed my stuff and started going back to Horombo. This is when my lungs started to really crap out on me and I was really finding the uphill sections hard and had to stop to catch my breath every now and then, and I also stoped at the last water point to put a band aid on my foot coz I could already feel a blister forming. After about 2 hours I reached Horombo, by now I was truly feeling like crap and just wanted to go to sleep.
