15,000 ft and climbing!

"Hola -
We're heading up to Cotopaxi right now where we'll be dropped off with our carefully selected trimmed down supply of essential belongings. We'll trek up to our refugeo to a height of 15000ft where we'll make camp. From here we'll walk up to the glacier an hour away to acclimatise and practice walking with crampons and taking them on/off. We have one night at the refugeo (a bunker like hut), we'll practice a little more and then rest up for our night (alpine) ascent on midnight Tuesday to Wednesday 7am. So for now it's 'adios, see you later alligators'. There will be no reception until Wednesday - we LOVE you all and talk about you incessantly. Keep Well.
XOXO hug hug kisses kisses"
