Long Journey Home

We made it to Sudan! George, Margaret and I left Nairobi Tuesday morning around 7:30 heading to Uganda by bus. We stopped in Kisumu where we had lunch with George's parents. The bus driver was mean and almost left without us! He refused to let Margaret and I go to the bathroom. By 9:00 pm we arrived in Kamapala, Uganda. We met up with Abraham (who is helping build the new clinic) and stayed at the MAF guesthouse. The next morning we left at 6:30 for the airport. We took off around 8:00am and were in Tonj by 12:00. The plane was tiny (sat six), but was very comfortable. It was the best flight I have had. Although the journey was long, I wouldn't mind doing that again. The bus ride was fine and the plane ride nice.




(Uganda was very green and beautiful)



(As we flew close to Tonj, I wondered where all the huts went. Then I realized, they are still there; it's just the surroundings have gone brown and they are now camouflaged).
