We arrived at the Entebbe Central Inn and got a few hours sleep before hitting the road and heading to Jinja.  It was a long drive; traffic was exceptionally heavy and the road was even washed-out in one section due to the heavy rains.  However, thanks to the exceptional driving skills of our bus driver, Faroukh, we were able to take in the sights, smells, and sounds of numerous villages on the way to our destination. After settling in our homes for the next week, we went off in search of Damali.

We were not disappointed; only a few minutes later our paths crossed on a red-dirt road and our team was greeted with cheers, cries of excitement, and hugs.  It was wonderful to see our friends again! Everyone is pretty tired, so I am going to cut this one short.  We are all safe and excited about what the days ahead will bring.
Looking forward to sharing more in the coming days!
