Uganda in 9 minutes
Alright, so I've got 9 minutes on my interenet cafe time and a sticky keyboard, so this will be a quick, error-ridden post of my adventures thus far.
I went to Ethiopia for a day. It was awesome. We stayed at the hilton (thanks to Ethiopean airways) and met a crazy Italian lawyer who had been to 153 countries. He is my new hero.
The video crew (there are four of us) are safe and sound and staying in a little house near the Baha'i temple in Kampala (it's on Bahai Rd. you can't miss it).
The other night we noticed there were little teeth marks in the soap. and little muddy paw prints on our cel phones. so we put out some of that glue-y stuff that you're supposed to use to glue mice to the floor (why you would want to glue mice to your floor I have no idea) And then we set a mouse trap using soap for bait.
So in the middle of the night, our noctoural chum got up, stole the soap out of the trap (without setting it off) and then escaped from the mouse glue... or at least he mostly escaped. We call him "patches". In honour of our new friend I decided to go out and get a trim too. So I had my head shaved in a friend's salon. The women told him to do a good job so they could use my hair for their braiding...
Oh and then I went out today and sunburnt the top of my head. which was fun.
Oh and we're doing some video stuff too...you know, when we have time...and it's not raining.
oops, ran over time.. had to get another minute to send this sad blog. hope you all enjoy it, you owe me 500 shillings.
