Work is done and now i'm on holiday! The kids at school gave me a mini farewell, dancing and drumming for me and i was sad to leave the village. Having spent only 1 day in Kampala i'm really missing the quiet cool village life. The temperature in Kampala must be a good 5 degrees hotter than in the village which is not nice at night.
The rainy season is pretty much over and so people in the village have started to harvest their coffee - drying it for 2 weeks in direct sunshine to bag up and take to be ground. People are also becoming conscious of water knowing it won't rain again for another few months. On the way out of the village we had a clear run - not a single pot hole. A grater has been through and flattened it out, no doubt because of the upcoming elections next March (for which people have to register to vote NOW!).
Off to Kenya tonight so need to forget any Luganda i've picked up and get used to yet another currency!
