Landed In Tanzania,
Just landed in Tanzania, I think some of the team members are moving here from the way they packed!

All packed and ready to go
All the climbers zipped up their bags and heading to the airmlport early morning. Mixed feeling among the group mostly excitement and curiousity. I will be flying from Dubai and meeting the team in Doha for the connecting flight.
3 Schools That Made it Happen
Through hard work and perseverance in setting up school events to collect donations from students and staff, Qatar Academy, Al-Jazeera Academy and Qatar International School students have managed to raise the minimum of QR50,000 each. Their events ranged from Bake Sales, Festivals and Selling of Palestinian themed bracelets in support of the Elevate to Educate cause. Working closely with @d3nizy, a fellow climber, these three schools have done an outstanding job at supporting their fellow brothers and sisters in gaining access to education in Palestine. Well done to you all.

Resting at Camp 2
Arabs With Altitude descended the Lhotse Face this morning and are now resting comfortably at Camp 2. The team reports being in high spirits after yesterday’s summit.
Tomorrow morning the team will walk down to Base Camp and, weather permitting, take a helicopter to Kathmandu.
After two months on the mountain, everyone is looking forward to a hot shower, warm bed, and getting back to sea level!
