So it's been a crazy few days of epicness! Ah ok so prepare for some stream of thought-ness to cover the past few days:
salik small backpack. hassan in the amazing race at newark airport. talkin up globemed awesomeness to everyone on the plane. meeting up jacob and x for a beautiful tour of london. platform 9 3/4! landing 10 hours later in Entebbe. AAAH. world news updates: robots replacing clergymen in Japan? Dr. P (in robot voice): I know pronounce you husband and wife. chapati and african tea for breakfast. WEEBALE. (attempting to pick up any Luganda that I can, can't wait to start up Runyankole.) Reading a crazy Luganda dictionary - Dr P. : "No, I do not want a blood transfusion." ah, the best view of kampala (photos to come..) touring about Kampala. epic Globemed scrapbooking till 3am. yes. Can't wait to see Cleophas/Busheyni) so legit, get pumped for the pics.
More to come, don't worry it'll be more cohesive next time :)

Hello,
Kampala is like a small version of Karachi. We are staying at the Kampala City View Guest House which has a nice view of the whole city. Our neighbors are Vishnu and Ramesh. There houses are across from our hostel and I think I took a picture of them on their boda boda (motorbike). It's also interesting how much influence there is from the indian culture here. Yesterday, we ate at the snack bar and Melony, Dr. Patrick, and Salik had Afrikan tea and chipattis. I had Afrikan tea with samosas. I also heard a song that was partially in Luganda (I think) and partially in Hindi.
Today we might leave for Busheyni, where the KCRC is located. We will probably have better internet access there, so we will be better about updating and potentially even post pictures.
P.S. Dr. Patrick has an awesome laugh and is super nice.
Hassan
