Third Day's a Charm

Looks like Too Tall beat me to the update punch, but I really don’t have too much to add. I missed a call circa 1 a.m. from Shawniqua who apparently had trouble reaching Eric Abdul-Jabaar on her first attempt, so I got the sloppy seconds in the form of a choppy voicemail. It was short and sweet (well, from Shawna, tall and sweet), and here’s what I gist of what she said:

Day 3 weather was cloudy from 12,000 feet as the group was heading towards Mawenzi Lake near the Mawenzi Peak. Seems like everyone is hanging in there, despite a little case of Montezuma’s Revenge plaguing the otherwise happy campers. Two very tall blonde thumbs up re: the porters, who Shawna says are absolutely awesome and have helped make things easier. Sounds like Shawniqua’s sister, Nicole, the Aveda Vixen, developed a slight respiratory infection (I think she’s faking), but she’s getting better (good thing Naughty Nurse Dwyer is on the pleasure stroll up that hill!). As for Sarah, when she’s not wowing the masses with her tales of what she just said ten steps before, she’s apparently Snoresafrica, keeping Shawna up all night (or day?) by sawing some industrial logs. Isn’t it funny how the lowest of all low talkers can make the tent tremble with her louder than loud respiratory raucous?
More to come later tonight…hopefully either Too Tall or I can make live contact so we can extract some greater detail, but the punch line is that all are well and making great progress!
