“Niger River Cruise Part I, Mali, November 9,2007″ Modernnomad67′s photos around Lake Debo, Mali

  • Posted on September 7, 2011 at 3:06 am

Entry from: Lake Debo, Mali Entry Title: “Niger River Cruise Part I, Mali, November 9,2007″ Entry: “The Niger River is Africa’s second longest after the Nile, flowing about 2500 miles from its headwaters not far from the Atlantic in the Guinean highlands in a broad arc towards the northeast, southeast, and then southwards through Mali, Niger, and Nigeria. To travel by river the 200 or so miles from Mopti to Timbuktu is considered one of Africa’s great travel experiences. Our boat was one of the type known as a pinasse, the rather narrow medium-sized river going boats larger than the small fishermens’ pirogues but smaller than the river ferries. Even with motor power the journey would take the better part of three days. Once I got on I felt like I had gone out of the frying pan and into the fire since the fully loaded pinasse was even more crowded and cramped than our truck Daphne. Our Malian guide Grandpere arranged for the boat, crew, and cook, while in Mopti we loaded onto the pinasse almost everything we’d need for the next three days – food, beer, soft drinks, tents, beer, sleeping bags, small bags, more beer, a major logistics project. I couldn’t help but feel a little worried about the craft since it seemed to be one young crew member’s fulltime job to bale water out of the bottom of the …

Part Four – Travel Tales – Climbing Kilimanjaro

  • Posted on September 6, 2011 at 4:11 pm

June 5 – day 4 on the mountain Another night with little sleep. Day dons bright and clear with high wispy cloud. Intensity of the sun at this altitude has to be experienced to be appreciated. Trail steepens and becomes a little more difficult to traverse. “Pole, pole” Once again the grassland thins as favourable conditions for plant life recede. Alpine desert conditions are the order of the day as we broach the lip of The Saddle – a long, sweeping depression that connect Mawenzi and Kilimangaro peaks. Down and across The Saddle we go. Temperature drops 1°C for every 200m increase in altitude and although its early afternoon and we are working hard, we are really starting to feel the cold. Arrive Kibo Hut (4750m/15520ft) approximately 15:30. “Man, is it cold!” The clouds part – we see the challenge ahead to Gilmans Point and glaciers near the summit. Supper served around 17:30. We just stare at it – no appetite. Then its into our sleeping bags in an attempt to keep warm and hopefully to sleep. Sleep alludes us and when rousted out around 23:00 we are depleted. Decline food. Getting dressed (layer upon layer) is a real chore and seems to take forever. A Slovakian couple, who we had seen several times over the past few days, are the first to leave at 23:45, followed by a pair of Dutch climbers at midnight. www.traveltales.ca

Climbing Fansipan Mountain North Vietnam (Sept 2009) Part 5

  • Posted on September 3, 2011 at 7:31 am

msl = meter sea level Fansipan (phansipang) is a mountain in Vietnam, the highest in Indochina, at 3143 msl. It is located in the Lao Cai province in Northwest Vietnam. Fansipan is dubbed “the Roof of Indochina”; it is to be approved as one of the very few ecotourist spots of Vietnam, with about 2024 floral varieties and 327 faunal species. The summit of Fansipan is accessible all year round, but the best time to make the ascent is from mid-October to mid-November, and again in March. Foreigners like best to book Fansipan tours between October and December, as this period is more often than not free from the heavy rains that obstruct the jaunt. But the Vietnamese prefer their tours to the peak of the mountain from February to April, as it is not so cold then. However, the best time for the trek to the mountain is from the end of February to the start of March, when the flowers all flourish and the climbers may behold the carpets of brilliant blossoms, violets and orchids, rhododendrons and aglaias. We started hiking at 1900 msl on 9.30 am and stopped for lunch at 1.00pm at 2250 msl. After lunch we started hiking again at 1.30 pm heading to the night camp-site for day 1. After walking and climbing the whole day for around 9 km, we reached the camp-site around 6.30 pm. It is at about 2800 msl. During that evening the temperature falls between 14 degree or 15 degree celcius and by the time we finished our dinner it went down till as low as 8 degree celcius especially when …

Tea lights are cool part 2

  • Posted on September 2, 2011 at 3:22 pm

this is some footage of tea lights (those little ‘votive’ candles you put in the bottom of paper bags at christmas time) on our campfire last fall– we placed them on the grill on top of the campfire and put an ice cube on it- the ice cube and wax melts, the wax floats, and when the water suddenly reaches the boiling point- the was gets thrown out and ignites all at once… :)
