monday & tuesday

well, we went over to the Bulrushes (Baby Watoto) and it was an amazing time hanging out with the babies there.

Watoto is doing amazing work with these little ones and we were blessed enough to be able to spend some time with them - I'll have to post pics of our time there.

after, we headed to a market to do a little tourist shopping.

we rounded off the afternoon by going to the Lwanga's house for ice cream - it was so great being able to go to a friends' house in Kampala - they have a very nice house and we very hospitable.

today, we work up at 3:30am to head out on a safari. first, we had to drive about 8 hours to get to where we're staying.

a surprise to all of us when we pulled up and checked out our digs: www.mweyalodge.com. It is immaculate and far more than we could have imagined. the views are breath-taking.

we'll be here until Thursday morning, when we head back for Kampala for our last full day, as we'll be flying out on Friday evening.
