A Day in Kampala

Today started early with a text message from Susan saying she had missed her flight and couldn't get to Kampala in time for tomorrow's flight to Lui. We were hoping she could come tonight or tomorrow and make the Thursday flight, but it's full. So now I'm not sure what's happening except that Jim, Mary, and I are going on to Lui.

Jim has gone to a hospital here to meet a doctor friend with experience he thinks will help him in Lui. He and the cab are coming back for Mary and me, then we'll all be off to the ATM and shopping center. We have to be at Kajansi airfield at 7 tomorrow morning. If you don't see more blog posts, it will mean the Internet isn't working there after all.

  2. Poor Susan, it is so hard to get stuck in transit limbo. More prayers for a speedy resolution.

  3. Just got e-mail from Debbie. It wasn't possible to work out the logistics, so Susan won't be going. I am sure this is heartbreaking; she's wanted to return to Lui for so long.

  4. To clarify: It was Susan's decision.
    And I think it's amazing that Debbie (in Kampala) was able to reach me before Susan (now in NYC) could. What a world!
