Jambo from Kamuli

Simone, John & I arrived in Kamuli on the 9th. Since then we have done a variety of activities including: going to a Catholic mass, writing pen pal letters with the 52 kids, taking traditional dance lessons, learning the native language and we just completed a home stay. We are having an incredible trip! The people here are very kind and have warmly welcomed us into their community and culture. We have been sampling native foods such as jackfruit and kasava. As well as local delicious mangoes, pineapple and avocado. The kids here are amazing and have the most beautiful smiles and hearts. We are getting ready to go to dinner at Jospephine and Stephen's house. Josephine works for Kapida and the 52 Kids Foundation. Tomorrow we are hosting a party for all the kids in the program and their families. It should be a fantastic celebration of life and all the work the 52 Kids Program has accomplished. Liz, Angie and John are all enjoying themselves as well. We are all healthy and happy and hope that you are as well. Love from Kamuli!
