David and I have been united in Kampala. It was a long ways to get here, thanks to an airline snafu and some inclement weather in England. Left my house in Atlanta Thursday at 5pm, and arrived in Kampala Sunday morning at about midnight. Slept in Sunday , then David I spend the afternoon discussing his productive week of meetings and research on the ground in the capital. We have decided to drive north to Gulu today, in attempts to meet officials and NGO workers before they close for the holidays.Haven’t had a chance to explore anyplace, but the familiar sights and sounds and smokey-sage smells of the country are a welcome presence. We had the pleasure to eat dinner last evening with a local family outside of the city. Friends of friends who welcomed us and cooked a royal feast. It was a lovely welcome and a nice way to start the journey.
Northbound we go.

No signature to the commentary. Nice to know who's viewpoint we are reading.
ReplyDeleteThis daily journal is fascinating to someone who will never take a similar trip.
Hope the driver made it!
