Bry'Chell and I went to Jinga for a long weekend. I had traded class meeting times with another instructor at his request, so I had a long weekend. I figured Bry'Chell is only doing a few weeks of this school term, so seeing the River Nile would be more educational than learning agriculture.
We rode the UMU bus into Kampala on Thursday afternoon, stayed the night at the Grail and took a public bus--a small bus known as a coaster--to Jinga on Friday morning.
We also road public transportation back to Nkozi. It was quite an adventure, but I'm whipped and on my way to bed. I'll fill in the details in the next few days.
My year in Uganda as a Fulbright lecturer at Uganda Martyrs University.

About Me

- I am a Sister of Providence and have been for 44 years. I currently live on the south side of Chicago. I teach sociology and social work at Chicago State University. I started the "Sister Judy in Uganda" blog when I was a Fulbrighter at Uganda Martyrs University. That was over a decade ago, but I still have fond memories of that year.
