Hello Africa !
The effect of the anti-amoebae pills still gives some tiredness but the last 15km the legs got some of the old strength back :-)

The tent site after the run was one of the most Magnificen I have seen !! On a huge grass plain at a lake between Mount Kibo and an old volcano. Pelikans and a couple of pink flamingos on the lake, the full moon over it.. Africa doesnt get much better :-)
