Thur June 19th we finally were able to get with Safari at the set up of the Agricultue show. He is in the Jinja branch and a representative of a seed company that has an exhibit garden that he is preparing for the opening next week.  His cabbage heads were the biggest I had ever seen.


We took the Wests with us as they had some things they wanted to show us too.  Safari gave us each some cukes.  There were a lot of really nice gardens.  It will be very competitive and the prize isn't try much.

This is the back yard of a vacation home the Wests found above the Nile.  For some reason the pictures over the cliff beyond didn't turn out.  It was a very beautiful sight.

The Wests have a favorite bean and rice restaurant.  When we got there we found the "Brown Restaurant" was next door.

You can get a big bowl of beans and rice for about eighty cents.  Here we are with our food. Rand has a small bowl of chard that they call spinach.  It is usually too salty unless you have something to put it on that dilutes the salt.  The Wests will be leaving soon and we will be picking up a couple of their English classes.

The huge lizard on the termite mound can get up to 4 feet long.  When it is in the grass near the Nile River it turns green.  This one was just down the road from us in a vacant lot next to the service station.
