Chessells in Africa:


Packing our bags once again for a 9am start in the morning. We have a 3 hour taxi ride to Kampala where we will spend our last night with the family.  Crying as I write this!
Today we visited Care 4 Kids and met up with all the beautiful people that Janina talks about--a very impressive facility for 65 children.  The staff are lovely and the children delightful. Met the Pooles at Surgios pool for a play before lunch. Late afternoon we were invited upstairs to Surge & Denine's home for coffee and cake. Jas had helped their 2 daughters to make a delicious chocolate cake.  On chatting with Denine I discovered that she had worked with Katie ('Kisses for Kate' fame). Denine manages a home for abandoned babies.
We topped our Jinja experience with Pizza and Mango Smoothies at a restaurant in town.  The whole meal cost us about 60,000 shillings.  It is hard getting one's mind around the money here as everything is in thousands.
