Ian and Celia Roxburgh came to visit us from Scotland. Ian and Celia are from my home church, Wester Hailes Baptist Church, in Edinburgh. We covered a lot on their visit here and had a lot of fun times together. They have just a few photos to show you if you are interested :)
It was a great pleasure to show them our lives here in Uganda and they were a blessing to those that they came in contact with. They even led the worship at three Bible studies along with another worship time for a group of Ugandans. Amazing!! We were very thankful for their visit and Joshua and Zare loved having an adopted Aunt and Uncle around :)
The ferry we used to cross the River Nile to go on safari. Thankfully this time it didn't break down.
There are hippos under the water and you can see them pop their heads up at different times. Thankfully they are used to the ferry going back and forward across the river.
We also did a boat safari. Behind Joshua and Zara is Murchison Falls. A great volume of water has to make its way through a very narrow space. The white stuff on the surface of the water is the foam that is generated.
Zara enjoying the first glimpses of the falls. Wow it was a hot day unlike the last time we did it when we were soaked through when a huge storm blew threw.
Joshua, Zara and I on safari. We were sitting on top of the car so we could get a good view of any animals in the distance. Also we were look out for any lions. Not long after this photo was taken we came across a lion. He wasn't interested in us thankfully. Too many other "snacks" around for the taking.
Tegras, our guide, with a very big gun was helping us find all the animals. He did a great job of spotting two lions under a tree. They had just killed a Ugandan Cob (deer like animal) and were resting. They would finish their breakfast off once they had chilled out for a bit.
He also spotted a Leopard in the distance that we were able to watch through the binoculars. It is amazing how much you can miss if you don't have an eye for it.
