Camping at Lake Mburu

UGANDA | Sunday, 30 Nov 2014 | Views [948]

As our time in Uganda is starting to dwindle we wanted to make the most of it and visit as many places as possible in the time left. As Lake Mburu is one of our favourite places we just had to have one last trip, plus we still had time on our UWA passes ... Read more >

The Music Festival with no Music

UGANDA | Saturday, 22 Nov 2014 | Views [548]

The last time we were in Entebbe we picked up a flyer for a world music festival to be held in the Botanical Gardens in Entebbe, so we thought that sounded like something worth checking out. We reckoned we would use it as an excuse to get out of Kampala ... Read more >

Ole Ole Ole Uganda Cranes Ole

UGANDA | Saturday, 15 Nov 2014 | Views [430]

The Ghana Black Stars were coming to town to play the Ugandan Cranes in an AFCON qualifier so we had to go along to Nambolle Stadium and watch. We managed to eventually find out where to buy tickets, at a hardware store in Ntinda obviously, and plumped ... Read more >


Lake Nabugabo and Masaka

UGANDA | Saturday, 1 Nov 2014 | Views [706]

It felt like a while since we had been out of the city so we planned a short trip away from Kampala. We decided to head to Lake Nabugabo, a little-known place 20km east of Masaka. It used to be part of Lake Victoria back in the day, well about 4,000 ... Read more >

Showing Friends the Highlights of Uganda

UGANDA | Tuesday, 21 Oct 2014 | Views [607]

Since the half term break was only a week in length we decided not to fork out for air tickets but visit some of our favourite spots in Uganda instead. It proved to be an inspired decision as friends from England (Dave) and Singapore (Neil & Ping) ... Read more >

A Short walk in Mabira Forest to Griffin Falls

UGANDA | Sunday, 21 Sep 2014 | Views [1530]

It was time once again to get out of Kampala for the weekend.  So after the disappointing trip to Fort Portal a few weeks ago we decided to not venture too far and stick with what we know. So from kampala that means another trip to Jinja! However, ... Read more >

A Wet Weekend in Fort Portal

UGANDA | Monday, 25 Aug 2014 | Views [1290]

Our weekend away didn’t go as well as planned and it made us seriously think about how much gadding about we would like to fit in before leaving Uganda.  Unfortunately the rainy season is already upon us so camping is looking like a soggy ... Read more >

A 6 Week Road Trip Through South Africa Part 13: Back to Jo'burg

SOUTH AFRICA | Sunday, 10 Aug 2014 | Views [510]

The route from Royal Natal NP to Clarens is all on sealed roads, well it should be but a long stretch of the R74 was a complete mess of pot holes, dirt and gravel. Once on the R712 the tarmac reappeared and we headed towards Golden Gate National Park ... Read more >

A 6 Week Road Trip Through South Africa Part 12: Into the Drakensberg and a Trip to Lesotho

LESOTHO | Saturday, 9 Aug 2014 | Views [464]

I guess our opinion of the wild coast was also influenced by the all-encompassing haze around the region. As soon as we crossed over the N2 heading towards the Drakensberg Mountains the clouds and our mood lifted. We had also lost the traffic, especially ... Read more >

SOUTH AFRICA | Tuesday, 5 Aug 2014 | Views [1690]

We now had a week left and were now basically on the way back to Jo’burg. We had read great things about the ‘Wild Coast’ and were looking forward to experiencing the wilder coastline. We had decided to stop overnight at Chinsta but ... Read more >


A 6 Week Road Trip Through South Africa Part 10: Sundays River Valley and back to Addo

SOUTH AFRICA | Monday, 4 Aug 2014 | Views [385]

We weren’t sure where to head next so we plumped for the option of least driving and set course for the Sundays River Valley. This is the same river as we stayed on in Colchester but further inland. We ended up staying at Avoca River Chalets on ... Read more >
