Dull day...

This morning we went to the orphangae to see the children and be introduced to the owners. It's really lovely, the children are all well cared for and just adorable! Benji then showed us around Jinja, pointing us to essential palces...i.e. intenet cafes, good places to eat, good shops etc.

Given that my bag had finally arrived in the country, Benji and I then got a car to Entebbe...a 6 hour round trip, which turned into 8 given the ridiculous amount of traffic on the road!

When I arrived home, all the food was gone so it wasn't actually too difficult for people to persuade me to go out, especially when my dinner would be bought for me given that Mad have to provide us with food. So went to this car called Two Friends, which is just the coolest and most laid back place ever!

Already I have nestled myself in to the Africa way of life going out with very little make-up and in my tracksuit bottoms and vest. Had such a good evening chilling, drinking and talking to this really interesting guy from Iceland who owns the bar about Uganda and the way of life over here. What a complete contrast to the UK!

Oh. also found out today that the guy we knocked over on Saturday died in hospital.
