Africa?





Its been awhile since i have last communicated with you. so its going to be hard to catch you up on all that has happened. The time in Uganda so far has been very interesting. An experience i thought i would never have coming to Africa. I'm living with the top 5% of all the people in Uganda, the wealthiest and the smartest. The things i am doing would be what I consider touristy. I'm not complaining, but i just thought it would have been different. I am learning so much from the books that i'm reading and the people that i have conversations with. My mind is spinning with new knowledge and i have so many questions with no answers. But.....since last time.. this is what you missed. I went from studying in the classroom, to living with a family here in Uganda, to seeing the most beautiful sunrise, to facing two of my worst nightmares(trapped under water and falling), and to an awesome weekend spent with my friends from back home. .. oh yeah.. Happy 47th year of Independence Uganda.. Uganda celebrated its independence from Britain on Friday the 9th...





I love my brothers...every signal one of them..I got to spend two weeks with a family in Uganda. i experienced the every day tasks.. like eating sugar cane and burning trash. the weeks spent with the family was the most richest experience of my entire time here.




After the weeks spent with the families, they thought we needed a weekend away.. so we spent the weekend relaxing by Lake Victoria.. why not?





hers a glimpse of shear beauty.. one morning i woke up early to see something only few get to see.. a sunrise over Lake Victoria.

If you see TW wish him a happy birthday.. Happy Birthday T!
