I made it all the way to the top of Cribyn! This was my very first mountain top experience, and I was a little unsure of myself. How would the sheep respond? would it be steep? would the rest of my party leave me behind? I am used to the cheering crowds of London and was a little apprehensive at the prospect of solitude....well what a day It was. This went way beyond my wildest expectations...

The clouds cleared and its was a lovely September day in Wales (not quite as hot as the Saharah). I saw motor bikers, spectacular scenery, a welsh mens choir sang for me and I met people from all over the world. I made lots of new friends on the mountain who gave me £81 in cash for WaterAid (thanks camel friends).

After climbing Cribyn I got into the swing of things and continued up Pen y Fan and Corn Du. What a day in Wales. I was climbing for fun but also for a very important cause of bringing clean water and adequate sanitation to people in poverty. Please consider sponsoring me and the team and give the gift of water to people in need. Go on you will make a real difference to someones life. thanks :-)

more stories to come later, but i promised my new found friends that I would post all their photo's to my frontpage (wow I never thought I'd meet so many friendly walkers..)
