I'm sat in a back packers hostel in Kampala, Uganda. I don't know whose laptop it is that I am using to access the internet but I'm sure they're quite lovely; as they've just attached the cable to recharge it's steadily declining battery.

I'm safe. (Don't know if you heard, but it was the memorial week of the Genocide that took place ten or so years ago - and the people from my group that attended left the museum only an hour or so before a grenade was lobbed over the garden wall...not so sure of the damage that was actually caused but we're all just fine.)

This trip has definately been emotionally exhausting, and I've come to realise once more how beautiful this planet is and how happy I am to be a part of it. I was so happy to see my friends once more, so very sad to leave them. I'll tell you more when I get back. I miss you all. So much.

I'm awfully happy you're safe!  You've so much more to say and do.  I'm glad you got to see your friends, too. 

Big bunch o' hugs!
