Greetings from Kampala, Uganda

After 16 1/2 hours in the air and a few more milling about in airport lobbies and baggage claims, we've arrived safely in Uganda. However, many of our bags have not, and were left in Amsterdam due to flight weight restrictions.

So we're off to the airport (again) to collect them, then headed north to Gulu this afternoon. For those wondering we're 7+ from EDT in the USA.

So far, so good... the weather is nice, not too hot. We've already seen quite a few stork perched on the roof of the hotel. It was quite dark last night when we drove from Entebbe, so we didn't see much - today's drive should provide a better feel for the region.

More to follow... or not, depending. We'll be back in computer range a week from Friday.

Hi Guys, I've been thinking about you every day and many times throughout the day. I'm hoping and praying for a successful trip and a safe return home. It seems silly to say be careful because of course you will be to the best of your ability but as your caring Aunt feel compelled to say the obvious! Take care of my big sister please!
