Today we made the drive from Entebbe to Iganga where we will stay for the next 9 days. It is only 153 kilometers between the 2 cities and in normal conditions would take us 2 hours. There are no normal conditions in Africa though! First we had to make a "30 minute stop" to get a stove fixed....that stop lasted 3 hours! We did get to eat some frozen yogurt though! After that stop, it still took us another 5 hours in the Musana bus to get to Iganga! Luckily we had lots of popcorn to eat along the way and we stopped to buy chicken on a stick! Driving through the towns was also very intgeresting. For starters, people were selling bananas EVERYWHERE! YUM! And there were a lot of people selling beds. The coolest part of that is that they delievered the beds (and everything else) on bicycles so we saw a lot of people riding their bikes on the road with huge loads strapped on!
