OK so I've been completely hopeless at writing blog posts over the last few months, but I thought, as I'm coming to the end of almost a year here, I would try and get back in the swing of posting! So I'm going to eventually post updates on Hands for Hope developments, general Kampala fun and a few travels. But I thought I would start with a few pics from a fairly recent weekend trip to Lake Mburo.
 
I talked about Lake Mburo in my last post, so this time I'm just posting some photos - of our boat trip, a brilliant walking safari (spending Sunday morning walking amongst zebras, cows and kobs was fantastic) and some wildlife that I hadn't seen before. Here goes:

Not at Lake Mburo but (quite a common sight), some stools for sale by the roadside on the way back to Kampala.
