Our Stay in Jinja

Our 3 hr drive from Entebbe through Kampala to Jinja.  Beautiful forest part of the way, as well these rolling hills of tea were amazing.  We were able to have real "drive thru" experience on the road.  If you pull your car over for just a second, you will be swarmed with the whitest, sweetest smiles, asking you to buy their "Gonja" (grilled plantains).  And WOW!  Way better than a drive thru McDonalds window!

 

While in Jinja, we visited Amazima ("truth" in Lugandan) Ministries.  If you get a chance google Amazima!  Katie Davis's story of the Lord's work through her life is absolutely remarkable.  I encourage you guys to read Kisses With Katie, a book she released in 2011. Anyway, eMi has designed and is managing the construction of a 65 acre campus, complete with a boarding school for 700 Ugandan children.

These last two pics were taken where we stayed on the Nile River.  Unbelievable.
