Safari

Well... I had one of the most amazing weekends ever. We went to Queen Elizabeth's National Park on the way back to Uganda...We stayed in Hostels on the Game park (where Hippos would stalk our houses) We saw some of the most amazing animals in the world. I have never been so close to some of the most Majestic creatures ever. We went on 5 drives, and we saw Lions, Leopard, hogs, water buck, water buffalo, elephants, hippos, crocks, mongoose, and many more... it was one of the coolest things I have ever done, and also one of the most beautiful. It was humorous, because we went on these safaris on essentially a charter bus.... so on the way home today our bus over heated, probably because buses were not made to go offloading... but (TIA- this is Africa). So due to the over heating, it took us 12 hours to drive back to UGANDA.... so that was a little INTENSE To say the least. But we are now back in Uganda... back to the amazing cooks, and guards that i loved and missed. On the way here we stopped at the equator which was really cool. Did you know that on one hemisphere the water goes down one way, and on the other it goes the opposite... and ON the equator it goes STRAIT.... and this all can happen in a few feet... WEIRD huh....I am glad to be Back... but i do miss Rwanda...We did however go to the chao chao tonight, had the ice cream i craved, and visited the cat who lives in the grocery store... who is still alive and well, just a little smelly! It is nice to come back to somewhere I know... We also have a new addition to our "family"... there was a man from the embassy who went back home.. and left us his puppy!! so we have a new golden retriever named jack... we are very excited about him! he is Me and Leah's new running partner!!

Well... enjoy these pictures... they are from an amazing SAFARI!
