A New Destination

It is not officially official yet but we recently received word that we would be heading to Kampala, Uganda for our next posting. That's right, the "Pearl of Africa" and home to a rapidly increasing number of wild animals. Though sad to realize that our time in Laos is coming to a close, we are excited about our next adventure and the opportunity to return to Africa. We will also be living only 35 miles from the equator and, though once again land-locked, only a short distance from one of Africa's great lakes and (one of) the source(s) of the Nile. From our initial research, it sounds like Uganda is a land of superlatives: friendliest people, most temperate climate, best bird watching, and one of the highest levels of alcohol consumption in the world. If that isn't enough to encourage a visit, maybe this will do a better job of promoting Uganda.
