Sorry, it's been awhile...

Well, here is the real sign that I have been in Africa: No internet for a week. Ok, quick run down. We went to QE Park for two nights, where we had a hippo wander through our camp site, right next to our tent. We went chimp treking (they are such amazing creatures). We then headed to Jinja where the White Nile begins its trip from Lake Victoria. We went Whitewater rafting which was amazing. A couple class 5 rapids, which you can't do in Canada because the water is too cold, but in the nile, that's not a worry. We flipped 3 and a half times. I will explain the whole and a half thing when I get home. Mom did awesome, although came out with a sprained finger. We each had to be rescued by the safety kayaks on different occasions. But it was a ton of fun. We went and helped at a local school the next day. Have to say though, kinda skeptical about a lot of this aid stuff now, but again, that discussion is for another time. Ok, so yesterday we were at the Masai Mara in Kenya for possibly the worst game drive of all time. Not even a zebra up close. Ah well, our drive from there to Nairobi today was much more successful, even if it was along the 'highway'. Sorry that this is so brief, but we are going out for our final dinner together and I have to go shower. Oh, got my hair braided again in Uganda, but don't know if it will make it home, driving me a little crazy now. Anyways, talk to you all soon
