Tanzania, Rwanda and now safely into Uganda

Oh the delays in getting internet access. And even when we get stationed in a big city, we have to write off line and look for somewhere to plug in. Sounds simple … it isn’t!

Mum has just returned to Wales after a two week break. It was with some relief that we managed to hook up at Uganda’s international airport, both ways without having to negotiate landslides, a broken trailer hitch or the riots which erupted last night and government tanks. Today we are hemmed in at Russell and Jenny’s, the amazing Aussies who run Operation Uganda (based at Jordan House) – and where we plan to spend our next few weeks. We are holding on to see if the ‘increasing crowds’ calm down without incident. Although we nipped out today to get fuel as the word on the ground is of impending fuel shortages. Never a dull moment!
