I am trying to upload pictures in the Internet cafe and it is not going so well. So sorry.
Lara and I went to Kampala on Saturday. It was very hot and very busy. I saw a mother with a huge bag of something on her head, a baby on her back and holding the hand of a little one that was walking as well. Craziness.
We went to Entebbe on Sunday. It was very very quiet. We visited the zoo there (all rescued animals). There were monkeys all over the place. We then ate pizza on the shore of Lake Victoria, it was just lovely.
I think we will be going to Jinja this weekend, maybe some white water rafting!
Work is pretty good. We are really starting to run out of medication which is so tough.
The birthing process is very different here. No drugs etc. A mother was having a difficult time giving birth so they "pumped" the baby out by pushing on the top of her belly, didn't learn that in nursing school...that is for sure.
I was getting really really dusty here because it hadn't rained in two weeks. It finally rained last night. Our host family received a rooster as a gift yesterday so that is my new alarm.
I got a thank you note from a very sweet boy the other day too. He gave me his picture, a magnet and a sucker. All I did was give him a shot in the butt for 5 days in a row--must have not hurt that bad...
Hope all is well. The weather finally cooled after the rain. Thanks for reading!
