If you look closely.......you can see the little bitty road on the mountain....
THAT is the road that our HUGE bus went on...very close to the edge at times....but Jamille was the BEST driver ever.......He was very confident and comfortable...

We must have been the talk of the village.....traveling up the mountain on the dirt road in that huge bus. We really enjoyed the bus ride. It was great getting to rest the night before after the flight, before we headed out again towards Kanungu.

I remember how shocked I was to be greeted at the gate by all the thankful relatives.
We had to pass by the gates of the school in order to reach the JOY Guest House......
Someone flagged down our bus because they wanted to welcome us. They were so excited and eager to express their excitement.
It was a major culture shock. I had my camera and I also took some video.....but I remember how we were all moved to tears........at how we were received.
I was so surprised at how expressive they danced, that I was a little embarrassed. It seems ridiculous now.......but I had just arrived.....and I was too taken back to even video the man who danced the best and put the most in every move.
As you watched them dance, you knew how thankful they were and that this was a "WELCOME" dance. They are so loving and appreciative....

Uganda is a beautiful country. Mountain ridges off in the distance in almost every direction. The people were very excited to see this huge bus with all these WHITE people coming into their village.

The team had a blast getting the sponsor letters and pictures together for the children. We checked out each of the watches, making sure that they were working properly and setting them to the correct time.
