Just got back from two days at Sipi falls in Eastern Uganda. Pictures coming soon! In the meantime, let's backtrack. I've been meaning to post some photos from my fun four days in London in June. Hilights included an afterhours tour of the Tate Britain, birthday dinner with my sisters, Aunt Mary, and Uncle Nick, a hilarious stand-up/dance show, and catching up with my great friend Alex Henson. Lowlight: accidently sending a pigeon to its death at Borough Market. The details are too painful to mention here. Ask me about it. Actually, don't.</div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7b6XejrBMy5luu7T9KE0J6LQDdz85IRQEeNA5KaYH0MD48FH4507w2AsPicFiUWIuIpbYrXi3AzA1QJM3y6eR1hY5FPb9cedNVvSbCYy1qbJXN31OJwY0ontDw36L0JXSwcl1fydMQgY/s1600/IMG_0152.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><br /></a></div><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSf5vZJETBoamSgHajnkzCRPZMmBQo7rQlLs9dFYUGpPiEbr3jOrUVo4w01v3BsWXesroK_-A2vu71zKesrp6mnhKW9Htiw1ztZ_KrOg15KDyFZJV7x6gu0-X6eFfU32322JL8XTOnXWw/s480/IMG_0090.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5625999243152690818" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; " /><div style="text-align: center;">Out late @ Tate. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXei05Qmgsd-v555z12WDZrWW2y1weK9JMWUao5tjM3m1G7VbHlbUmfKUSj5P-ct3p3WLBQKDXBdFfq8s14KAk5clkUHgGFxPbzMmqdVAmM06NH0wakohzKq5yuSEEYS7ZKQgorOUPG2E/s1600/IMG_0089.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXei05Qmgsd-v555z12WDZrWW2y1weK9JMWUao5tjM3m1G7VbHlbUmfKUSj5P-ct3p3WLBQKDXBdFfq8s14KAk5clkUHgGFxPbzMmqdVAmM06NH0wakohzKq5yuSEEYS7ZKQgorOUPG2E/s480/IMG_0089.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5625999235911948914" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; " /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><div style="text-align: center;">VIP access, nbd. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto;"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7b6XejrBMy5luu7T9KE0J6LQDdz85IRQEeNA5KaYH0MD48FH4507w2AsPicFiUWIuIpbYrXi3AzA1QJM3y6eR1hY5FPb9cedNVvSbCYy1qbJXN31OJwY0ontDw36L0JXSwcl1fydMQgY/s480/IMG_0152.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5625999254845797938" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; " /></span></span></span></div><div></div><div><div style="text-align: center;">An afternoon cocktail at Mary and Nick's.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPc2CdDRCj6aAHrhnOWJBMKxukvqZ5hhSVGp56JSq06dMfzjSIlIHhQMqXFdWILS99XhxrpBft8rjSQaNR1C4rCXzOAKiSps21jIWDb5K8lZuxC1PAHJ5sYg48__2956DQacADm9HbH3U/s1600/IMG_0154.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPc2CdDRCj6aAHrhnOWJBMKxukvqZ5hhSVGp56JSq06dMfzjSIlIHhQMqXFdWILS99XhxrpBft8rjSQaNR1C4rCXzOAKiSps21jIWDb5K8lZuxC1PAHJ5sYg48__2956DQacADm9HbH3U/s480/IMG_0154.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5626198962512166610" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; " /></a>Herring soufflé.

What is a "Cultural Safari", you may ask. Well, in addition to seeing some amazing animals (see previous post), we met a number of locals who are working to develop sustainable tourism projects, and explored the different crafts and traditions of the region. I and my six companions did a (half-priced @ $192) "trail run" of the trip, and gave feedback to the different activity leaders, guides, and performers that we met over the course of the four-day weekend. The fact that we were providing valuable feedback saved the trip from feeling super cheesy. We spent a night at an amazing little camp in Rubona, a village nestled in the Rwenzori mountains, and two nights at a rustic lodge near the entrance to Queen Elizabeth National Park.</div><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238);

We asked one of them what was going on, and found out that a wild animal had been attacking and killing goats all over the village. The man didn't know the English word for the predator and when we guessed "hyena," he said that it sounded right. They were on a mission to find and kill the hyena. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Four hours later, on our walk back to our camp post-hike, we noticed a huge group gathered in a field. Had they captured or killed the predator? We approached to find out. We were shocked to discover, in the middle of their cluster, a small, dead... dog! Apparently jungle dogs will latch onto the udders of goats and bring them down. Yikes. </div><div><span class="Apple-style-span"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline;

One could totally physically dominate me if I got between it and its garbage/food. <br /><br />Apologies for the dearth of posts. The internet here is uber slow- pictures take hours to upload if I'm lucky. Just got back from an amazing four-day "cultural safari" that included hiking, basket weaving, candle making, jewelry making, and a land and water safari. I REALLY hope to be able to share some pictures in the next few days!Lizhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18280181562342300673noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6629050941232460258.post-68912772459998252342011-06-05T12:43:00.000-07:002011-06-05T14:11:40.502-07:00hi ugandaI arrived in Kampala, Uganda late last night.
