Very few people at breakfast. Plain eggs, toast, and bananas. No juice again. No work today. I did a bunch of laundry in our sink. No power again today. That means that we will run out of water soon also as you need power to pump water in. Some went into the internet café. I stayed and got caught up here with the journal.
I got a call from Dana saying to bring her money and camera and Malcolms camera and hat. She just said “trust me”. They sent our usual taxi driver for Dennis, Andrew and I. He drove us to lake Victoria. The plan was to have lunch and then go for a boat ride out and around the island that is in the lake. We ate lunch at a tourist hotel on the shore of the lake called Hotel Talapia. It was really nice and even had a pool. She told the boat people we would be there around 3. I had prawn pie. Like shephards pie but with shrimp instead of beef. It was great and filling. We finally got our check and left which took over 2 hours. When we got to the boat rental place they let a government couple budge and go before us. We would have had to wait at least 45 min. more and it was already 3:30 so we left. So they didn’t get on the internet as there was no power and we didn’t get the boat ride. Some of the nurses were mad as they didn’t get to go but the boat only could hold 7
