Arrived in London

So, we departed the village Thursday morning, stopped for some coffee in Jinja, and then split with the rest of the group with them going back towards Kampala and Greg, Lauren, Jared, Matt and Jenni going to the Hairy Lemon.

The Hairy Lemon is a campground type area that is actually a small island on the Nile River. It was very picturesque and relaxing. We were able to get a shower after several days in the very muddy village and talk about our experiences so far through the trip. It was a very good time of further getting to hear about the ups and downs we have experienced and the lessons that we have learned so far.

We departed Friday morning back to Nasana and spent the next several hours packing up, tagging paper bead necklaces that support the Threads of Life ministry of CLD and saying goodbyes to our friends at CLD. We went to a pizza restaurant on Lake Victoria by the airport with Jenni, our driver Emma, and a Ugandan friend Florence. It was a great time of relaxing and hearing insight about the Church in America and in Uganda. We got through the airport with no real hassles and flew for 9 hours. We landed in Heathrow and got through pretty quickly.

We are now sitting at the Ace Hotel(where we will be staying the next 2 nights) which is from where we are updating the blog.

We are looking forward to getting home and getting to share more details about the stories we have experienced and lessons we are learning.
