Today was not tough terrain, it was a well worn path through fascinating rain forest where we were observed by Blue Monkeys. It was a long pull to our camp at 3,010m. I struggled at one point but a timely rest and a Snickers bar perked me up - 'poley-poley' thank goodness! We arrived at camp to popcorn, biscuits and ginger tea. Our tents are very small two man tents which you can't stand up in so I am feeling a little happier about having a tent to myself. It is very cold (and tonight is supposed to be our warmest) and I am feeling a bit rough with a headache and nausea. I struggled to eat dinner but I've taken some paracetamol and at 8.30pm we are all tucked up for the night. We have been warned that the altitude may make it difficult to sleep so it could be a long night! All you could hear during the night was the sound of tent zips as everyone made their way to the toilet tent at some point. It is freezing but the stars are amazing.
