Introduction to today's journey
Today's journey takes me from Mbarara back towards Kampala going through a fierce storm. We stop at some souvenir shops on the equator before heading to a small village along the shores of Lake Victoria. After exploring the shore, we return into Kampala where our tour ends.
Today's Journey
 |
We leave Mbarara in the early morning heading through the misty valleys of scrub making our way back towards Kampala. |
 |
We make a stop at the equator where I buy some souvenirs. |
 |
Soon after leaving the equator heavy rain begins falling making the trip back a bit treacherous. |
 |
The locals scurry for shelter from the torrential rain. |
 |
The rain stops falling as we approach Kampala, but running ahead of schedule, we find a nice bay at the edge of Lake Victoria, the main source of the Nile River. |
 |
A pair of large storks forage the shallows. With a wingspan of almost 3 metres, these are the largest flying birds in the world next to the albatross. |
 |
Our van which has seen a lot of action from the rain and crossing the mountains. |
 |
More rain is approaching as we leave the lake. |
 |
Returning to the centre of Kampala after exploring the remote wilderness of Western Uganda. |

Celebrating the end of our road trip with a pizza. |
