Charlie : Uganda 2012

Charlie has just returned from his first visit to Africa and he had a good time. In addition to the short stopover at Rwanda’s Kigali Airport we spent a day in Entebbe before then travelling to the town of Jinja, which I had previously visited with Dragoman a few years ago.

We weren’t in Entebbe long, as this was mainly a rest stop due to arriving in the middle of the night on my flight, so we didn’t do much but we did go work a walk and visit the zoo in order to see some local wildlife and also see Lake Victoria.

The majority of the trip was spent in Jinja visiting a friend who is currently volunteering at an orphanage there. Charlie stayed hidden for most of the time at the orphanage, so that the children didn’t become too attached to him, but he did come with me into town a couple of times, visited the source of the River Nile. I did manage to get one photo of him with a great kid called Jamil.
