The Hike

We were all so excited, talking about what we’d do when we get up there, how we’re going to conquer all odds and get up there no matter what, making sure we have enough snacks to fuel us the entire hike, wondering if any of us would get altitude sickness, and making sure if we needed the meds one of us would have it. The highlight of the trip was supposed to be the Mount Kinabalu climb. We were going to get up there, watch the sunrise, be surrounded by nature’s awesomeness, and take lots of photos. Alas, the weather wasn’t on our side on the second day, so we couldn’t make it to the summit. I guess we’ll have to go back there another day!

Bye Mount K. We’ll be back!
If only I could stay afloat on one of those fluffy clouds and see the world from high above…
Downhill is harder than going uphill, at least for me it is.
