Into Uganda

Welcome to Uganda....the only nation bold enough to sell the actual source of the Nile to a beer company. My first impressions were that as Australians, we would fit right in.

We have driven little Larry across the equator and into Uganda and onto more adventure. We both thought we would reflect on what happened in Egypt as we left ........and that's enough of that. The men were generally vial towards Tanya, and apart from some wonders of the world I see no need to go back.

Whilst is Egypt, I booked Larry into  landrover expert (Bush Rover Nairobi) to have his chassis braced to stop any more cracking problems. They did a great job of making him into the terminator. They welded more steel on to the chassis than your average Abraham's tank. Larry is now indestructible (touch wood). The work was incredibly cheap....it would almost be worth freighting your home projects to Kenya to get done.

Prior to rolling out to Uganda, we went to a Giraffe rehabilitation center....the picture says it all.

Our crossing into Uganda was crazy....it really was like a scene from the Star wars bar...there were animals and people that could only have been movie props...but apart from being stopped by heavily armed police in colourful uniforms...Uganda has been pretty cool. I went quad biking along the Nile which was hard corp boy cool. There seems to be no problems driving quads on the roads here, and when we left the dirt, I was easily blowing past most cars on the road.....I'm not sure this was covered by our travel insurance...but it was fun.

The Nile and Lake Victoria are all you could imagine....and now we are starting our journey south to walk with the gorillas.....sux to be you all home at work.
