We wanted to leave as early as 08:00, but the overland truck was going nowhere. Most of the passengers were still having breakfast and lounging around, at least their tents were already packed up. By 08:30 Caro asked the driver when they are leaving and he said in 5 minutes. Finally at 08:47 we could [...]
We got woken by splashing fluid close to our car. We again had visions of people dousing us in fuel and setting us alight. Caro looked out the window and saw that someone was washing the other vehicles at 05:00 in the morning. She tried to tell him to stop, but he kept washing cars [...]

Around 10:00 Caro and Sekar made egg fried rice for breakfast and Helen cut a sweet pineapple for brunch dessert. They have to back in Germany by [...]
We managed to leave earlier than usual at 09:48, but since we were heading to Rwanda which is only GMT +2 we told ourselves that we actually left at 08:48, almost a record. We took a narrow gravel back road which winded along around Lake Bunyonyi and later went really close to the edge of [...]
