Greetings from Kampala Uganda. We arrived here early this morning. It has now been 6 airplane meals and 3 days without a shower since I stepped foot on American soil. Kampala is in the capital and I just paid a dollar to use a computer in a little print shop for 30 minutes. We whitewater raft the Nile tomorrow and then it's off to the village of Kitgum for the rest of my 2 week stay.
One of the more funny things about my trip so far is my frequent slippage of the Spanish language. For some reason, when I'm around people that don't speak English I switch straight to Espanol mode and start spitting out "holas" and "como estas's". Nevermind that they might speak French, Portugese or Acholi. I have slipped so many times and feel like such a dork.
My 30 minutes is almost up. But I just wanted to let everyone know I'm here safe and please pray for my trip. Pray for everyone on our team and that God would open our eyes and ears to his purpose here. Blessings.
