Containers

It is late on Friday night and I am determined to write this blog before I go to bed. It will be our last from Uganda for four weeks as in three big sleeps time we head to NZ for a catch-up with folks.
As you can imagine this week has been busy preparing things for leaving, starting with haircuts on Sat & Sun afternoons. Timothy decided on a new hairstyle and with added moustache looked quite old. He was predictably told to get a proper cut at school so he joined the ranks of the baldys.

We went to Kampala for shopping on Wednesday. We didn't get there last week as Marilyn has had another dose of malaria and it took a good 5 days to recover. She is still finding that she gets tired easily, perhaps 28 hours travelling will relax her?
On Wednesday evening we had an armada of containers arrive, 5 in total. The third picture shows them parked up the drive with many interested and excited children on Thursday morning. I had taken some snaps of the containers we had been working on earlier in the week, and the fourth photo shows the containers now with 4 stacked on top. will be fun getting to those when we need to open them.

Marilyn had gone with Renske on Tuesday to the Drs in Kampala to have her tested for TB. Fortunately the test was clear but she still has pneumonia so is continuing some medication for that. I think we are going to miss her when we are away! You reckon?
Well, that's about all for now, we are looking forward to visiting NZ even though we still have to start packing. Come Sunday evening we will be able to relax we hope.
will see many of you when we return
Until then
God Bless
