Africa what a place!!!
Africa was hard to leave though because the culture, the ,country, the people were amazing. I really had an amazing time. I loved everything about it. We worked in a childrens home while we were there called Lulwanda. We painted and painted and painted some more. we also cleared off their incredible dirty basketball court and re painted that as well. It was hard work, but we enjoyed it and everyone was so thankful even if sometimes we got more paint on ourselves then on the walls. After we worked for a few hours every day we got to have some quality time with the children to just play and be with them and learn their stories. They were a blast. The last couple days were down time for all of us, and we got to go to this place called Sisi Falls about an hour out where we were staying. It is a gorgous waterfall and we hiked to the base of it. After that we got adventerous and climbed to the top. It was a differicult climb, but so worth it in the end. The next day we headed off early and said goodbye to all the wonderful people who met at our house we were staying at, and left for our 4 hour journey back to the airport. It was truly a wonderful end to a beautiful and wonderful experience in Uganda.
