For the third stop on the trip, I am climbing Mount Kilimanjaro with my tour group. It is on the East African Rift, a divergent boundary. This is on the African plate which is slowly splitting into two different plates, which will be called the Somali plate and the Nubian plate. Mount Kilimanjaro is made from 3 volcanic cones, and at this moment it is inactive. A divergent boundary is when two plates are spreading apart, like the sea floor spreading.
