Moshi, TZ to Karatu, TZ

(POR) O nosso dia hoje/Our day today

Today we travelled from Moshi to Karatu passing through Arusha. We saw Mount Kilimanjaro (or part of it) and Mount Meru. We also passed by Lake Manyara.
The weather was great for riding and the roads were also nice.
We even had a chance to push a bit through some twits sections up the mountains.
Probably one of our best days of riding.
