Hello All, life is good in Africa. Woke
this morning to the birds singing and a cool morning. Very restful
night at the Boma and a great breakfast then on to Kampala. We have
a great driver and he is working on getting our luggage to us. There
were 5 of us that did not get all the luggage and 2 of us did not get
our clothes. The rest did not get suitcases that had supplies. There
were several groups that did not get luggage at the airport. One
group had 12 people and they were missing 17 bags. Because I had this
happen before I was somewhat prepared and all is fine. It should be
here by tomorrow. We shopped, I found a great skirt in case my
clothes do not get here for church and some other things. Had lunch
at the Garden City Mall Food Court. Increased security after the
situation in Nairobi and this made us all feel better. Nic and Mosh,
two of the kids I care for so much met us for lunch. They are in
university there and it was good to catch up. Nic is the artist and
he brought the canvases for me to bring back. They are beautiful.
Cannot wait to share them with you all. The trip to Hoima was the
usual, long and interesting. Saw 2 men walking down the road with
live turkeys on their shoulders, just sitting there. Traffic is much
heavier and we had a strong downpour while we were in Kampala but it
passed quickly. We are now settled in Kijungu Hill Hotel, had a good
dinner with wonderful pinapple, fresh peas, irish (that is white
potatoes) and tough chicken. I am ready to get some more sleep and
then head out to the Babies Home tomorrow for a hug or two or three.
Life is good just a little difficult because of the clothes but I
will make it. Love to all and will post tomorrow.
