did i mention......

so on the walk to danida from our house, we take a back way along the railroad tracks and then over to the giant water pipe lines.

So me and marayah, of course, walked across them, all the while amber is filming the ordeal. so as the path amber is taking dips down into the ground, the pipes obviously stay level, creating a 10 to 12 foot drop from water pipe to ground (which is wet and filled with snakes - yay) the pipes are about a foot to a foot and a half wide. and this goes on for like 120 yards. i regretted it, but there was nothing i could do.

sooooooo we have this hilarious video of me stopping every ten feet, getting nervous, building up my confidence a little, and the going another 10 feet. you can imagine how long this video is.

all the while, marayah is walking back and forth , stopping, sitting, picking at super long stalks of grass, like a little gymnast.


"can i monkey crawl this one?"

"can you what?"

"on all fours?"

"what, why would i do that? i mean, can i get on my crotch and inch my way across!"


sooo, one of many battles already won in uganda.
