Monday in the Kampala Area

Today we went to visit a partner of With God's Little Ones in the greater Kampala area. We visited another school/orphanage, medical clinic, and building under construction for a future volunteer house for teams wanted to come and work in Uganda.
It was very interesting to see other parts of Uganda. It really is a beautiful country. We witnessed a huge rain storm with pea size hail. I was amazed with our bus driver as he was able to navigate the red clay/dirt roads with the water rushing everywhere.
After we made it back to the city of Kampala we went to a local market to shop for Uganda/Africa items. Pretty neat how many things there are. We also visited a local grocery store. In some ways it wasn't very different from our stores...and in other ways it wasn't even close to our grocery stores. Products are obviously different.
Anyway, we enjoyed eating dinner with our Uganda friends who are leaders out here in the Lutheran Church...Pastor Charles, Violet, Fred, and Joshua.
This is our last night in Uganda even though we will not get back till Wednesday night. Tomorrow we pack up and will get to one more market before we make our way back to Entebbe for the Airport.
