FANTASTIC!!!

Eleven days ago we landed and got the shock of humidity in Entebbe. Being greeted by some amazing locals and our fearless leader Nadine. Stayed the night in a hotel in Entebbe and headed into the deadly streets of Kampala the next morning. Me (nate), Nadine, and two of the locals, "Action Jackson" and Prichard headed to the place where the container was stored, and the rest of the guys headed into the deadly maze of the city to look for parts for the solar project. After the container Dilema was solved we headed back to town and met the others and headed off the the farm outside of Masindi. The people at the farm were amazing, and greeted us with a local song and dinner. After Meeting and greeting everyone from the farm they showed us to our hut and we tried to fall asleep, but this was a difficult task due to Brians snoring. The rest of the time on the farm was great, they fed us well and did everything possible to make us comfortable. Vbs went great, due to Jeff and his "organized chaos" called Shepherd and lion. We left the farm and made our way to the Kalongo hospital where we the hilarious local nuns took care of us. Over the next few days we somehow installed an x-ray machine with some help from god, and got a processor up and running. Jeff did some much needed Ultrasound work for the doctors, and on the last day we had a feast fit for a king prepared by the nuns. complete with live music and dancing by the students of the local girls school. We spent the last day back at the farm and ended the trip with some great worship. This trip really couldn't have gone any better!
