Quick check-in

Another quick post here.

We got back in from the tent camp just fine. It was an amazing few days in the western part of the country. No lion sightings (I was wrong - they aren't in that park) apparently we were in the wrong area) but we did see plenty of zebras, hippos, impala (think gazelles), and a huge crocodile - very cool. We came back to Kampala and had a meeting at the Makerere University campus and then had a dinner with the Executive Director of VEDCO - the NGO that the SRL program works with.

Now it is 9:00 am Thursday morning and we are about to leave for 5 days in Kamuli - the same area where many ISU students have lived and worked. Should be an incredible time.

Will check back in with more stories (and pictures) later.

Cheers!
Chris
