Uganda: 9 — Memories of Uganda

They are many . . .
  • The spontaneous waves and smiles
  • The overloaded bicycles
  • The large baskets balanced upon women’s heads
  • The children pumping water at the well
  • The babies ... and more babies
  • Throat music
  • People walking by the roadside – all day and all night
  • Roadside markets
  • Everyone talking at once
  • Matoki – the favourite food!
  • Rice fields, tea plantations, mountain side farming plots
  • Bumpy roads ... red dust ... everywhere!
  • The rooster ... our morning alarm
  • Extended hands of gratitude
  • Loss of electricity ... again!
  • Friendships
                  ... we will never forget!

Sleeping Children's 2007 Uganda travelling team

Thanks, once again, to Felix Rwamafa for emailing the Uganda Live Reports and photos to Canada. He says:
"This is the last report as the SCAW Team in Uganda is packing to come back to Canada. It's been lovely giving my service to the team. Looking forward seeing them next year and do the same work.

"I wish them a safe journey."
