SeNile and Die?

It’s Easter – and time for a few days away.

We went with Corrie to a lodge on the banks of the River Nile. One source of the Nile is at Jinja on Lake Victoria which is a beautiful part of Uganda to visit.

 We would like to say how active we all were. In fact, the ladies were very active, including swimming several times a day. Malcolm just sat around enjoying the view.

As a reward for all the exercise we all shared in some Easter chocolate. At least the ladies will have worked the calories off.

Corrie set herself a target of doing a large jig saw. There is nothing like sitting outside doing a jigsaw overlooking the Nile.

 

One creature which did not need to feel guilty about being lazy was a small sun bird which had built a nest by the swimming pool. She kept busy by getting food to feed her chicks.

On the way home we were overtaken by a coffin on wheels. You never know when you might need one.

This weeks proverb from the BBC Africa web-site is from Sierra Leone:  "No matter how beautiful and well-crafted a coffin might look, it will not make anyone wish for death"


PS. Despite the title, see you next week?
