Uganda - Pearl of Africa

Finally i have access to the internet. Will just drop a quick note here.

I have reached Uganda safely and thank you all for all the well wishes! Will take care of myself here. These few days have been good, almost like having a tour of Kampala, thanks to the great hospitality of fellow Singaporeans who are living and working in Uganda (there are only 14 of them in total) Have met only a few of them, not all. But yes, it was really fortunate to have them take us around, if not we would be really lost.

The culture here is very much different and it so happens that we are the minority. Read: bad reputation of chinese in Uganda, cos of the way the Chinese ppl do their businesses in Uganda. Yes, so we have been quite careful all the way, even while walking in the streets. But yes, we are able to get around fairly ok, mostly walking cos the public transport is really not that safe actually.

Shall post my travel diary when I am done with it. At least, when I have proper access to Internet. Yups, so just wanna leave a note and wish all well. Take care of yourselves and we shall meet again in 2 months' time.

Yes, i know God will be ahead. So no fear. Will hang in there! :P
