Our Last Trip to Kampala

Here are some of the sights that we see on our trips to Kampala.

Just before we left Gulu, we met a lady selling fabric and jewelry.  The fabric is on her head.   We bought a pretty piece.
She is from the Congo and speaks French.  She knew enough English for us to communicate a little.

Charcoal is the main fuel used for cooking.  There is a lot for sale in the villages on the way to Kampala.  The villagers make the charcoal by burning wood in controlled burns under the ground.


This is a closer view of how they fix the sacks.

This is what we drive through in the outskirts of Kampala each time we make the drive.

A market.


Charcoal for sale.

Where we found the cheapest diesel.  

Lots of pretty scenery outside the city.





Lots of little markets.


A truck broke down right in the middle of the road and will be there until it's fixed.   Could be days.
A common sight.
We love this tree.  When we see it we know we're almost home.

This one is even closer to Gulu.  One tree or two?


Yes, there are two.  It give the same illusion going both directions.


A progressive farm in the swamp.

Coming into Gulu.

One of the many buses that travel the road between Gulu and Kampala.


One of our favorite places to shop for groceries in Gulu.
