Only 2 days to go. I upgraded yesterday but there are no rooms today so back in tent for the last 2 nights. We have had a tropical storm in the afternoon for the last 3 days. It was torrential today for about an hour but the rain hasn't really bothered us soo far. Jinja is the source of the Nile. There is a spring where the Nile starts and it also flows out of Lake Victoria. It is the adrenalin capitol of Uganda. You can raft down the Nile, jet boat up the Nile a...

4 days to go...we are on the way home. I don't believe how rude some of these people are. 4am start to cross the border and long drive, compounded by roadworks. I was up at 1am because of the freight train in my tent. Im upgrading tonight. On the way to Mburo we passed another leopard. That makes it 5 since I joined the tour.

ONLY 10 DAYS TO GO Im upgrading tonight no matter what the cost. Our itine...

The campground is pretty good, hot showers, green grass and clean toilets. We are here to do a walking safari with the chimps. On the way here the trip leader was advising some of the guys who to tip and how much, before we have even arrived...so it is NOT a tip it is a surcharge. The chimp walk was pret...

Latish start today cos we have to go to the shops. The Sheila's seem to want to go to the supermarket and get coffee everyday. The Lugogo Mall was mostly closed cos it was early, which was a real shame. It is a really classy place with armed security guards patrolling the outside and TWO security at every shop to metal scan everybody. There was a menswear shop that had Safari suits and heaps of other cool gear and I'm sure I coulda found something to suit me. I c...
