Today, Monday, we went to Vwaza Marsh Game Reserve. It was fantastic, we have never seen so many elephants together in their herds it was an amazing sight. We also saw hippos and monkeys. It was very dry and dusty and we were covered in dust from the road we were travelling on. It has been very sunny and hot today. This evening we have been invited to Rev. Levi Neyondo's home to have a meal with his family.
Thanks everyone who is leaving messages and comments, its really nice to get them. Thanks. Speak soon!
