Kampala

We have been in Kampala all week and yesterday Danny passed his motorbike test. So we will soon have our own transportation!!

Kampala is crowded, dusty, and hot but the shopping is great as is the food. We highly recommend The Great Wall Chinese Restaurant on Kampala Road -- also the Indian restaurant (forgot the name) on the very top floor of the Garden City Shopping Centre. Kampala has slums but also has some very posh areas and posh shops.

This afternoon we are heading out to a conference centre in the 'sticks' for a week of VSO 'training'. At least we'll have hot showers.

We hope to have our internet connected at home by the time we return, but if not this will be my last post for about 2 weeks.

Hope all the Americans had a great thanksgiving.

PS. I made a correction to our postal address in the sidebar -- I had spelled the town incorrectly -- it is Mbarara.

PPS. Planning a trip to America in May!
