| Instead of writing a blog here, I'm just telling about my past couple days through pictures. Read all of the captions! Here's Josh, eating some goat at Elizabeth's goat roast--it was so yummy! |  | ||||||

| We PCVs filled a taxi from our mid-service conference in Mityana to Kampala. We actually over-filled it (18 people instead of 14) and we were pulled over by traffic police. At the same time, an ice-cream vendor was wheeling his bicycle by, so some passengers took the opportunity to buy ice cream. |
 |
| Here we were stopped again, because some had to make a "short call." |
 |
| ...quick stop.... |
 |

| I spent most of the weekend with Kirk, Mark, Erik and Dave. This day we were trying to out run the pending rain, but we had to find a place to eat. We happened upon an alley-way food place that was one of the busiest places we had seen. Their food looked and smelled amazing, and was super cheap! |
 |
| You may not appreciate the size of these pots, but use the door at the left for a size reference. HUGE POTS! |
 |
| Kamapala has some sweet grocery stores...meaning that they probably look like any other American grocery store...but it's kind of a big deal after you've been living in the village for a year. Looking for the frozen foods? Just go down the human-hair-ice-cream aisle... |
 |
| Galen and Erik at the movie theatre. I saw The Avengers! Good movie. |
 |
| Another grocery store adventure--we find "maize floor" |
 |
| "What a great find!" |
 |
| Capri Sun! |
 |
| We found Root Beer and made Root Beer floats, thanks to the ice cream at Nando's. Yummmm! |
 |
| Crackers and cheese for lunch! |
 |
| To celebrate Cinco de Mayo, we went to a place called The Little Donkey. They also literally had a little donkey. These animals are not common in Uganda--in fact, they tried introducing these in a district far out west for travel, but the villagers just ended up eating them. How could you though, aren't they so cute? |
 |
| Feliz Cinco de Mayo! |
 |
| Our food was really late, so I just kept ordering Margaritas... |
 |
| Ole! |
