WUNDERLI WANDERINGS

On Friday we have elections here in Kampala. So far it has been peaceful and there have been no cases of riots. This week we are seeing more and more rallies taking place as the time gets closer to people voting. Today we had the opposition leader speaking at a rally round the corner from our house. Apart from being loud and busy things went well as far as we know. Museveni (current President) brought parts of downtown to a standstill today as he went on his campaign trail. We would value your prayers that the situation would remain peaceful during the voting process and the results would be fair and a correct representation of how people voted. Pray also that the opposition of whoever gets in will accept the decision and not retaliate with violence. Joshua and Zara have a week off from school starting Wednesday for half term but also an extension added on because of the elections. They are not complaining :) We have made provision in case things do go pear shaped in stocking up...

Landing at Kidepo in "Scotty" One of the two pick up trucks that we went in for our morning safari. You can see Zara in her pink rain jacket sitting on the cab of the truck....who needs seats :) Daddy and his little Princess In search of lions..... Joshua our junior tracker found some antelope like animals African vulture A herd of giraffe which included a baby one....not shown in this photo. A buffalo with an interesting horn decoration Our home for two nights. Bulbul the elephant who hangs around the bandas on occasions. He was on a mission to find some food and had smelled some pineapple. I wasn't about to stand in his way. This is him finding the kitchen entrance, he drank all the water that was lying out in a bucket as well as trying to get into the kitchen for the pineapple. He also raided the bin and made a lovely mess. Who is going to tell him off? One way to get rid of him is to light a fire which one of the staff members did. He then trundled off. Joshu...
