Sunset Over Kiwoko - for a short time

This is our last blog for 3 weeks.

We have returned to England to go to a friend’s wedding. This means we have had to say goodbye for a short time to our friends in Kiwoko – but we believe that at least the temperature in England will be similar to what we have become used to over the last 3 months.

 

Because we catch an early morning flight from Entebbe we stayed at the Airport Guest House. This is run by the same tour company as the Travellers Rest Hotel, our favorite dining place in Kisoro. The former hotel manager from Kisoro, Jan, (pronounced Yan), now works from the Guest House so it was a chance for us to catch up with him and to share memories of the French. (This refers to a book we borrowed from him entitled ‘1,000 years of annoying the French’).

 

This week’s bug is a large fly which visited our Kiwoko home, but made a crash landing on its back. Fortunately our BA flight was less dramatic!

 

This week’s Swahili proverb from the BBC Africa web-site is from Liberia  “The sun will shine on those who are standing before it shines on those who are sitting”
