A few more pics from training.....

Here's a blog I wrote last week but couldn't post as the internet vanished!!

OK so this week has been much the same as last-lots of training and not much else to report hence this blog being mostly photos (I'm also making the most of the quick internet connection here!).

Top 4 moments this week:
1) Playing football with some of the volunteers....the locals thought it was hilarious that Muzungu girls play football. I found it hilarious that you can play football in a field around cow, which is so uneven you have no idea where the ball will bounce let alone run without falling over in long grass which makes the ball stop!! I was modeling my newly purchased Uganda football shirt!
2) going for a run with Hannah, while the kids were laughing at me going insanely red (those who came to my triathlon will remember the colour) when Hannah then tripped over...making them laugh even more
3) Mastering the hand-washing technique....who needs a washing machine when you have a bar of soap and a bowl of water!
4) Waking up to the most incredible thunderstorm. I have never heard anything like it...this week I'll have to try and get my storm photography up to scratch.

Low point of the week

1) I've found out my placement has no bed.....I was prepared for no water and electricity but a matress (aka 2inches of foam) on the floor will be interesting! Ah well at least I won't have to share with 9 girls who wake me up all the time!

For those of you who are interested I'll be going to Busaana in Kaynga on Monday. Found out my placement is right next to the sub county HQ, and the police post opposite the health centre so should have anything I need (except a bed!!). For the election period we're going to stay in Jinja just in case there is any trouble-quite happy as it means we get a long weekend with the international volunteers.

Not sure when I'll next get on here but keep sending me your news.

Lots of love
