We all had a bit of a sleep in this morning!
After brekky Linda & Graham went into town for more shopping & the children went for a swim. Keith also went in for a swim while I watched. After lunch we had a lazy afternoon and at 4:30pm wandered down the road to a little fishing village on the banks of Lake Victoria where we were met by Joel for our Banana boat cruise. We watched fishermen casting their nets with great skill. The bird life along the Nile is incredible. Birds of all sizes live & fish on the river.
We also went to the disputed source of the Nile=a tourist attraction in the middle of the river. I guess tourists will believe almost anything they are told. We were hoping to see a beautiful sunset as the afternoon was very sunny. However the sky became overcast so the sunset was lost but we really enjoyed our cruise along the river till after dark. As the sun sets the fishing boats take to the river with their lanterns. Apparently the lanterns attract the insects which in turn attract the fish and make a great sight with all the lanterns bobbing on the water. Tired children by the time we walked back up the hill to the guest house. All in bed now! I wonder what tomorrow will bring?
