These are top notch shots, HL. In the late 19th century British Queen Victoria ruled over two big mountains in East Africa, Mount Kilimanjaro and Mount Kenia. Her nephew was Friedrich Wilhelm II, the future German emperor (her daughter Victoria was his mother). When he was about to turn 12, she asked him what he would like to have for his birthday present. He answered that he wanted to have a horse. But Queen Victoria thought that she can't give the future German emperor a silly horse, so she decided to give him one of her two mountains in East Africa instead: Mount Kilimanjaro. He wasn't too pleased, when he heard that when he turned 12  :wink:  :wink:

Thanks very much for that great story....after leaving the red deserts of Somalia I diverted to Mt. Kenya National Park and from there I could see Mt Kilimanjaro...

One of the greatest screenshot threads I ever saw here. The colours of Arabia... the colours of Africa... Mawensi, Kibo... and then the plane is obviously circeling Mt. Meru...

It was 11 years ago that I stood on top of Mt. Kilimanjaro and especially with the last shot I remember this lucky day. Many thanks for posting, HLJames!
