- After being in Kampala, Uganda for only a few days we headed north to a village called Gulu, which was practically destroyed a few years ago by the LRA, and and IDP (Internal Displacement) Camp just outside the village. Our contacts in Gulu work for a ministry called Favour of God. We learned much about Gulu from them and much about their school and church, etc. It was amazing to see God at work there an the people praising Him! They drove us around and treated us very well the few days we spent with them.
- With only one day to relax in Kampala after Gulu we moved east and hour to Jinja. It is here that we participated in "possibly the best rafting in the world" on the Nile River! We had an awesome day on the river and met some nice Brits and Aussies that night at the lodge. We wasted no time between rafting and our next adventure which was bungee jumping over the very rapids we rafted the day before. It was one of the most fun things I've ever done and if you can find a place to jump that is as awesome as this one I suggest you try it!
- Since then we have pretty much just been hanging out in Kampala riding botas, playing football (futbol) with street kids, and watching Season 2 of the OC at Brandie's. We are trying to contact people in Nazareth outside of Nairobi, Kenya to spend a few days before flying out of Nairobi on the 1st and starting the Europe phase of our trip.
Hopefully posts will not be so few and far between in the future, but we won't promise anything!

Thanks for the update. Enjoy the chats. Hope you can post some pictures sometime; otherwise I guess we'll just have to have a party when you get back to share with everyone. Run barefoot with the Kenyans if you get there.
