Uganda & Rwanda Uganda has got to be one of our favourite countries in Africa.The scenery and the people make this place. South of the equator Uganda is very green with high hills and mountains and is very luscious.One of our first main places we dropped in at was Kabale.A few of us were out and about together and stumbled across an orphanage.The kids were so gorgeous and they were so excited they had people coming to visit and put on a 'show' for us - sing...

Kenya This is where part 2 started.It was a sad farewell to the group we'd travelled with for the last month but we say goodbye and looked forward to the next stage of the trip.We had a 'farewell' dinner in a restaurant called Carnivores which was delish - all you can eat meet BBQ .If anyone is ever in Nairobi, it's a restaurant to go to! So the next group were a hoot - mainly Aussies again and although there were more of us, there was a really good vibe abou...

The Acacia trees slowly started to emerge and it was alot more barren.

They really don't have alot of anything.They were however, some of the friendliest people and the kids were amazing with massive smiles always on their faces!! We spent the majority of our time in Kande Beach and Chitimba which is on the west coast of Lake Malawi.In Kande Beach we visited the village where we w...

Zambia We just touched on a small part of this country really.We stayed at quite a nice little campsite that overlooked the Zambezi.A few of us did a sunset cruise which was really nice. Not quite what we were expecting - we were expecting some sort of 5 star luxury cruise but instead got a boat full of the 18 year old drukens ( the ones we were trying to avoid) along with lots of cheap white wine and z-grade food!!But we had good company and it was gorgeous on ...
