Hello again from Uganda! I realize now that it's been a month since last checking in with our blog-- sorry about that! I've been quite busy with a few things. Chandy John has been on site and we've had productive meetings, and have been working on editing of forms to make our data collection more efficient. Look for an upcoming post with more details.
Since arriving back in mid-February for my 2 month rotation there was time to fit in a visually breathtaking safari.
I took some of my PTO in early March when Abby came to visit for a week. While we did spend a couple days around Kampala and at the Mulago Hospital, we first went up north on a 3-day safari. Our main stops along the way were the Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary, where they're reintroducing them back into their natural habitat after being poached to elimination years ago, the big Murchison Falls Game Park, and the Budongo Forest for chimp tracking.
Pictures say it all, so here they are!
