Northern Uganda

After Nairobi we met in Kampala, and we drove 450 km to Lira in Northern Uganda where old friends of ours are working in a smaller Church medical centre. We met some of the tall nilotic black tribesmen there, who live in small round houses, and women who ride bikes and enjoy tribal dancing!

We crossed the mighty Nile in flood at Karuma on its way to Murchison Falls where it passes through a 21 ft gap! We spent 5 bone-shaking and slippery hours on a 100 mile section of dirt roads, averaging 20 mph.
