Day 149: Mabira forest to Kampala

2017-07-16T20:28:39+02:00 July 10th, 2017|Categories: Africa, Trip Report, Uganda|

We slept late and packed up very slowly. The Dutch couple went on a 2 hour nature walk in the morning and returned before we left. At 11:00 we drove off towards Kampala, preparing for the worst as people keep warning us that we will now finally reach actual traffic chaos. The traffic flowed easily [...]
