Venturing into Uganda has been full of ups and down. The ups have been some of the beautiful places we've been able to see so far and the relaxing that we have been squeezing in every other day or so. There are little pleasures along the way such as floating on the nile and enjoying a nice massage for $5. Or taking in a beautiful sunset on a white beach on the Ssese islands. But we have also had to deal with crazy transportation over equally crazy roads, bizzare and repulsive smells eminating from every direction. Swarms of africans surrounding you and trying to herd you in directions for buisness, Brits that party too late and too loud and of course the worst a 4 day GI infection that cleaned all my fluids out both ways.

But now I am on the mend and back in Kampala which is a crazy bustling city. In the downtown center where all the little mini busses arive it feels like an ant farm of activity and it is easy to get mixed up walking though the streets as they curve and intersect all over the place.

I'm attempting to get some chores done maybe even some laundry before saying goodbye to Rachel, Marc, and Kylie and moving on to the last stage of this journey through east africa.
