Great first day in Africa. Spent most of the day safe and sound in the hostel. We got a chance to play pool, some card games and enjoy an African rain shower. Also we saw two monkeys who live outside the hostel! Can't wait to get into Kampala.

Anyway my team members are great I enjoy spenting time with all of them.Most of our day yesterday was spent bonding with each other and practicing team building excrises. Today is a big day for us we finally get a chance to explore the city(kampala) wish us luck. P.S Uganda is extremely beautiful,and so rich with culture and Life.

Wow, what a great start to the trip! Yesterday the group relaxed in the Backpackers Inn having group discussions, playing games and setting goals for the trip; it was a lovely way to get over the jet lag of nearly 2 full days of traveling. I've made some great friends so far; there is no doubt this group of students and leaders will become a wonderful Jamii (family in Swahili), I am very excited for the days and months to come! Today we start our adventures into Kampala for a scavenger hunt and traveling through the city, can't wait!!!!
