welcome to uganda

I only have about 10 minutes, so this will have to be a very quick update, but I wanted to let you all know what was going on. We got to Entebbe, Uganda by about 10 on Friday, and after making it through customs we piled onto one of USU's buses to drive the hour or so to the university. After a night in the guest house on campus, the other 14 or so IMME students and I got dropped off at our host families. Living with my family has been great. I don't have time to tell you all about them, but I will say that I was shocked at how nice the house was. We don't have running water, but we do have electricity, and I share my room with another IMME student, Laura, who is from California.

Classes started today, and I have already had three, with one more this afternoon, and then another orientation meeting before I walk back home. The Ugandan professors are all great, and I think I will enjoy all of the classes.

Sorry I don't have more time, but I'll let you know more later!
