We are the first ones to admit that we've had pretty bad luck while over here in Africa. Among wallets, laptops, cameras being stolen, being mugged at knife-point, having a flu, stomach bug, third degree burn, malaria, typhoid fever, amoeba, and bacterial infections, we have still managed to survive and don't regret coming here for one minute. Unfortunately my latest sickness has come too late in the trip for me to catch up with the tour group and still make it home in time for work...which means I must come home early. Although I feel horrible leaving Africa, Amy and our adventure together, I know that our time volunteering has been one of the most rewarding things I've ever been a part of. The people and communities we've worked with have truly changed my outlook on life and made me ever grateful for everything that I've been given in life. I promise to update the Uganda blog entries and photos when I arrive home and am fully recovered. Thanks again to everyone for your support and encouragement of our work here in Africa, it is an experience that we will never forget!
