Have been trying over and over to put pictures on facebook and just can't manage. So they are here instead...
First this picture because it makes me laugh. If you look closely through the windshield you can see two traffic police (white uniforms) and that explains why the kids are ducked down hiding. There are 4 in the front seat and 4 in the back seat. This is the day we spend in Kampala with the corona as our method of travel for 8 people.
These next two pictures are the Hindu temple in Soroti. There is a good sized Indian population in town (they are all middle class shop owners and there is a mutual dislike between them and the Ugandans) but we have been getting to know them and were invited to a celebration not too long ago.
These last two pictures are the pool in Soroti that I'm considering swimming in. The East African Flight School is located in Soroti and one of the thing that student pilots have to learn to do is swim. (Honestly, I really don't understand the logic so don't ask...)
But it is a little slimy and all of those little black spots are swimming tadpoles. So, lets just say I'm still researching treatments for Schistosomiasis and have not yet dove in....

Yeah, no chance that the heat is causing you to want to take the risk, huh?
Off topic: are you picking up any of the local language? Are your language learning skills coming in handy?
so do I want to know what that disease is?? And I'm curious about the local language too. Are you almost fluent yet? :)
