Pictures! Yay!

This is the Mulago "new" Hospital entrance

The orthopaedic department. The door with the blue sign is Patrick's office where I am doing work from time to time.

The yummiest tilapia ever... fried, seasoned, fresh from Lake Victoria... MMMmmmmm (Served with casava and salad)

Pineapples from Patrick's farm. Delicious... Not sure if you can tell but they are about a foot long and and 7 or 8 inches wide!

Under the banana tree in Patrick's garden... Isabelle on the left is his 5 year old daughter with her cousin Tess on the right

Miss Samaria is 3 and as cute as a button!

Patrick and Sami by the guava tree

The view of Kisaasi where the Sekimpi's live. The photo is taken from behind their house.

Mom and baby riding side-saddle on a boda-boda on the main road from Patrick's house. The driver has a helmet!

Aside from the major highways and drives downtown, this is a typical Kampala road

I don't know if you can tell how huge this bird is but I felt like had I been walking on the street under it this morning, it would have scooped me up and eaten me! This is a Marabou Stork. Two of them were flying over the highway. I didn't think I was afraid of birds, but I might be now. I;d guess, its wingspan was close to 8 feet!

I have left Patrick's this morning and moved in to the Mulago Guest House. It's is much more beautiful than I thought! This is my room for now. It has an ensuite bathroom! It is across the road from the hospital and up the hill from a market. More pictures of the grounds to come soon.
