Thursday 9/9 8:00pm

Well, it has been a full week and a day here in Uganda and I feel as if my feet are finding their pace here both literally and figuratively. Today at work a "large group" of white people (6 people) from Texas came to donate a couple suitcases full of medical supplies for the clinic. We chit-chatted for a bit while two of the women caught up with some of the clinic's nurses and once they left almost every employee of the clinic came up to me during one point of the day to ask, "Was it good for you to see white people today?" I replied, "Well, yes, but I kinda like being the muzungu of the town."

Yesterday I was offered a great opportunity that was too good to refuse.. Next friday there is a group of US ARM supporters coming out here to check things out and see what they are supporting while donating money/time from the US. They will be traveling to some of the ARM supported places/facilities/groups here in Africa. The group would start here in Kampala. From the morning of the 18th they would leave for Mubende to visit places (three sponsorship places and a farming area) there then come back to Kampala the morning of the 21st. Then in the morning they would go over to Bethany to check things out over there. That same afternoon (the 22nd) they would leave for Jenja, check things out (project called Mayuge, a sponsorship program), stay there for the night. Then the next morning (the 23rd) they would leave for Soroti, check things out there (another sponsorship program), stay for the night. Finally, and my personal favorite, the 24th would be a day completely dedicated to going to a game preserve, including a land/driving safari and a water/boating safari/cruise. I am very much looking forward to this.

So, yeah.. That's what goin on out here. haha

p.s. I hope to be able to upload some pictures in the near future. Only thing is that its a long process and I'm being graciously given internet without charge. To upload pictures takes a good deal of time and amount of info down/up loading. Don't worry, if you still feel like you didn't see enough of the trip, I'm sure there will be plenty of picture viewing nights at my house when I return.
