Refreshing waters?

It has been a fun week with Helen and Chris visiting from South Africa. It has meant we have been getting out and about with them rather than working – apart for the day they trekked gorillas.

Chris made quite an impact at Potter’s Village but seemed to worry some of the children.

Malcolm took them for a walk up a nearby hill with views over Lake Mutanda.

Having survived that we went on an outing to Bushara Island on Lake Bunyoni.
On the way we enjoyed some of the breath-taking views, though unfortunately it was a bit cloudy.

Irene, Helen and Chris took the opportunity to get some refreshing swimming in the few lakes which are Bilharzia free (a rather nasty fresh water parasite.)

This week’s proverb from the BBC Africa web-site is from South Sudan:

“Do not complain about the lack of wind, just learn to sail”
