Picture catch up!

Hi, again sorry for the incredible delay, internet in this 3rd world country is not reliable (who would have thought?)

Well, first things first:  I am finally at my 'site' where I will be for the next 2 years & I'm officially a Peace Corps Volunteer!!!!



I have pictures for the ceremony that I hope to post later this week (and include more info about my site)  but I have a bit of catching up to do.  To sum of up I finished up my time with my host family and I passed my language test!!
Below are some pictures from the end of homestay in Hoima.


Docus, me & Frank! My awesome neighbors at the top of the mountain

Walking down


Another climb up the mountain.  This time with Ravi and this stubborn cow.

Sunrise from the top!
Rhino trekking in Masindi. There are only a handful left in the world, we saw about 6!

There are some of them

Rachel, me &Sarah at a crater lake near Fort Portal

Rachel & Ravi cooking in his kitchen

Ravi & I went to the Mabale Tea factory, a few kilometers from where I live, with some of my colleagues.  It's really good tea : )

Bag o'tea


Mike at the first peak during our hike from Karagutu to Ntandi.  SO PRETTY

Ravi in the middle of our hike.

Me as we started our descent.
 
So that's that.  I finally got to town with my computer, which is now cracked : (, to upload this.
Soon I want to upload pictures from my swearing in ceremony.  Then I'll take some pictures of my house and the village I live in so ya'll can see where I live!
 
I've also started teaching and I really enjoy it.  I'm getting better with the language because that's how I communicate with my students! I'm also getting along very well with my colleagues and people in the community!  Still loving life : )
 
Peace & love xoxo
