another thursday

We left our little piece of paradise at about 930am this morning.


This was a long drive. On our hot, stinky, dusty bus we played another round of ‘the game.’ Just so you know it was a tie all-round.

They were doing construction on a huge chunk of the highway, so there were speed bumps and rumble-strips everywhere. We all knew there was a lot in our 410km trek, but someone (not mentioning any names, Barb Barber) counted every single one.

293 speed bumps or groups of rumble-strips in 410km! Makes for a difficult game.

This ‘short jaunt’ ended up taking 9 hours to drive.

We were all pretty tired and worn by the time we returned to the guest house for our last night’s stay.

Tomorrow (Friday) – we’re off to the market one last time to pick up anything we may want to take home with us/ off to Watoto Central for stuff (not really sure, actually)/ a little lunch/ pack and internet in the afternoon/ then it’s off to Entebbe Airport at 6pm for our 11pm(ish) flight to Amsterdam.

I can’t believe it’s already the end(ing) of this journey. But we still have many miles ahead of us before we are home.

More to follow
