Monday October 18th
I’m on the move at last. Didn’t enjoy the farewells I hate the waiting to set off bit!! But lots of further encouragement from many people over the weekend which has been a great help. Chatted to Kate tonight and looks as if all the arrangements for tomorrow are in place so hopefully Patrick will be there to meet me and hopefully get to Mityana by lunchtime. Ill have time in the afternoon to get out to Ekiwolumu (around 7 Kms out of Mityana) to see how things are progressing and have a chance to talk to Kisakye and mebers of the Uganda Esuubi committee about a meeting about the future of Namacosi on the morning of November 9th on my way back home. Lets hope I get a good zzzzzz on the plane tonight.

Slept a little on the flight. Arrived early but was picked up after wait of 2 hours as Patrick and Henry were slow to get there because of the road conditions between Kampala and Mityana which are really dreadful at present 3 hour journey for just over 60 miles
Went to see progress at Ekiwomulu this afternoon The classrooms were I use for exams so a very quiet atmosphere pervaded the site The 3rd house is progressing well Still no water tank and the generator has yet to move to its new home. A subsequent rather frustrating time trying to get mobile internet activated. Not sure its yet worked!
Hope to get away at 8am for the final leg of the journey on to Fort Portal and from there to Kagando
