This is me at the middle
Hello peeps I am so happy to participate in the season 2 of the diary game.I should have posted this yesterday but because of network issues I couldn't make it yesterday.I am making my yesterday's post for the diary game today.
DEAR DAIRY,
I woke up of as early as 6am and I observed my morning rituals viz: morning prayers, brushing my teeth etc.I then called my friends and we got set for the trip to the USHONGO hill.We trekked to the assumed extrance of the hill.USHONGO hill is one of the best highlands in Benue state, Nigeria.
Interestingly,from the assumed entry point to the hill is about half a kilometer (500 metres),that implies that we trekked half a kilometer in a rocky and narrow track.Of course we wore jungle boot and cap because the place is always hot.It was not a free flowing trek,at some point we have to jump and meander to pass through the thin track road.There were occasionally small water bodies,holes and caves.As we move,the hill gets farther,the more we go,the more the hill looked farther.We got to a point where we can't move or cross easily ,so we had to tread on a narrow bamboo wood to pass through,at this point it was frightening but we managed to pass through:we were determined.Everyone of us was tired,my legs were aching, especially the calf of my legs,the hill looked unreachable.We have trekked for hours.Guess what? after few minutes,we can breathe a sigh of relief because we are close to USHONGO hill.We can feel it,we can see it,we can smell it.Hurray!
The hill is so high,so rocky.It has got lots of caves too,the caves were cold,the coldness of the caves has helped our course because we were sweating before now.Without much Ado,we started climbing the hill, moving from one point to another.The hill was slippery,so climbing requires extreme carefulness which we strictly adhered to.We spent a lot of hours moving and climbing the hill.It was fun,it was a beautiful sight,it was a dream come true for me.It was a nice experience,we had almost forgotten the stress of coming through.We had to take pictures,the pictures might look dark because the distance from the person snapping is a bit far and also the hill is so so high.
It was indeed a wonderful experience.We came back around 4pm,so tired and weak.I had to take a shower and I slept off.I only woke up by 7pm and I took dinner and went to bed by 8pm.What a day! what a hill!

Great day you had here...I'm sure your legs are protesting right now 😂 I can relate, I once had to climb 1000 steps to get to the top of a mountain. I was regretting my decision halfway

Really @doppley my legs ache.Walking against gravity is always a tedious work.Climbing involves walking against gravity.I enjoyed the trip though.Thanks for the love.
