Hello there
you will love Uganda! Winston Churchill called the country the Pearl of Africa and it is as true today as it was hundred years ago when he visited.
Kampala is a dusty chaotic city at times but there's lots to do and the nightlife is fantastic.it's a short drive to Lake Victoria and a few of the Lake, particularly at sunset, is fantastic. Just make your way to the top of the nearest hill!
These days you can buy anything you want to, although there's a lot of cheap Chinese rubbish on sale.
The roads are pretty terrible and do be very careful if you travel on a boda boda motorbike. They're great fun and part of the Ugandan experience but don't just get on any passing motorbike.
if you'd like to know a bit more about life in Uganda, please check out my blog diary of a muzungu MuzunguBlogUganda.com
are you planning on travelling outside Kampala? It's easy to organise a Safari, possibly a bit late to organise gorilla trekking ( permits sell out quickly over the summer season)and Jinja is the source of the Nile and a great place to take part in activities like white water rafting, horseriding and quad biking., etc
Have a great trip!
