Adventure Weekend

This past weekend we decided to go camping with some friends. It turned into a real adventure. The journey to Jinja is only supposed to take 1.5 hours but it took us 4 hours. The traffic was horrendous. The friends that we were going with left a bit later and never made it as the traffic was so bad. They had to try again the next morning. We only made in 4 hours due to following some taxis who took a dirt road off the main road. We figured they knew a short cut and one way or another we would end up on the main road. The gamble worked and we cut out a lot of the traffic jam.

It was the first time we had camped with Joshua and Zara so we weren't sure how it was going to go. The first night we were there an almighty storm blew in. There was thunder, lightning wind and rain. Oh my it sure put our tent to the test. Joshua wasn't too impressed with the storm so he cuddled beside me. Zara was oblivious to it all and slept all through the night!!! We definately serve a powerful God if He can make storms like that. :)

We enjoyed days of swimming and relaxing....just what we needed. The days were extremely hot but it was good to see the sun shining. When we were packing up to leave the temperatures were in the 100's..hot hot hot!!

We made it back to Kampala in 90 minutes with no signs of the busy traffic that we had experienced coming....Hallelujah
