Hi everyone! sorry we haven't had time to update anything, we have been very busy. The flight was very long from phx. to houston to dubai to ethiopia to entebbe and then we drove to kampala (where we are staying). We have definitely been submerged in the ugandan culture as we have tried "real african food" ( they always ask us - "are you sure your stomach can handle it?") Our favorite form of transportation are boda bodas, which are motorcycles and you hop on the back and they quickly take you through the city. They call us "mazungus" (white people), and everyone constantly shouts "MAZUNGU!" as we are walking through the market, the village, and riding on boda bodas. The boys who are in African Hearts are the neatest boys you will ever meet. Everyone has a story. They also have big plans for the future. Many want to be politicians, engineers, and journalists so that they can do their part in making Uganda an even better place. We will have more soon. It is difficult to update frequently because we are always packing our days tight. Tomorrow we are planting trees in a SWAMP (rain boots are imperative). Welaba!! (Goodbye).
