Juancho in Uganda

This has to be quick because we need to catch a car fast towards Sipi Falls. I went on Safari to Murchison Falls this past weekend and it was amazing. We camped close to the Nile at the Red Chili site and saw Giraffes, Hippos, Elephants, Lions (including cubs), tons of antelopes of any kind, warthogs, baboons, and crocodiles. There was a boat during monday afternoon that took us to the bottom of the falls and the views were just espectacular. We also did a hike on tuesday to the top of the falls and saw how powerful they are. Wednesday was spent shopping in Jinja (I got 1 awesome painting!) and saying good bye to the other team leaders from the program. We woke up really early and took a taxi to Iganga, proceeded to buy a jacket for the climb (jacket and Columbia sweter for 10 dollars total) and tried to exchange dirty clothes but my big bag was not available. We took a large coach bus to Mbale and we are ready for a 4 day hike towards Mt Elgon (highest peak is 4350 meters with a starting hike of 25 km tomorrow). I will enjoy the views from the Crow's nest today and also their Guacamole and chips as well as their tomato curry. On that note, I have become and absolute lover of Indian food and have eaten a lot of spices lately. I have been missing on something delicious for a very long time!!!
