Goodbye Hillary and Jon :-( Hello Kampala :-)

Greetings from the National Library of Uganda in Kampala.
It is a very unimpressive building, but I thought that I would take a look inside, and behold, I found free internet!!

I split off from Jon and Hillary a couple of days ago. They left back to Israel today and I'm staying in Africa for another two weeks. Yesterday I arrived in Kampala and was slightly culture shocked.
After spending 2 weeks in a village, Kampala seems huge and uber cosmopolitan.

Last night I decided to venture out to the Cineplex to see a movie.
The theatre is in a very large, very modern and very fancy mall. Definitely the "nicest" place that I've seen on my trip.
It was really really weird.
I totally forgot where I was. It was the first time in about 7 weeks that I didn't stand out as a white person.
It caters to lots of expats, and to wealthy locals. It has a sushi place and cosmic bowling.
Very confusing.

Anyway, I saw Die Hard 4.0 which was a good way to pass some time.

Today I'm just wandering the city, getting lost and then finding my way again.

The plan for now is to spend a couple more days in Kampala and then head off to Rwanda for about a week.

My 40 minute time limit is almost up, so I have to end here.

PS Happy Belated birthday to my sister Naomi and cousin Ira!
