Andria in Uganda: Since Uganda...
http://andriainuganda.blogspot.com/2008/09/since-uganda.html
Wednesday, August 6, 2008. Since Uganda.I've been working furiously on this blog. My goal is to make whoever reads it feel as though they were there with me. Or at least get a good feel for what I felt when I was there. A lofty goal indeed - I've always set high standards for myself, I guess. Heh. To everyone who's been waiting for its completion, thanks for your patience. And please feel free to share this blog with anyone you think might be interested in reading it.

Friday, July 25, 2008. Today is another road trip - this time to a town called Tororo. Anthony was born near this town, and if there's time we'll stop at the village where he grew up. We. Arrive in Tororo later than forecasted, but we kind of expect this. We've come to start tacking on 2 hours to whatever timeframe Anthony communicates to us. Video above comes thru with crappy quality - apologies - any Blogger/You Tube nerds please email me if you know how to fix! In a bit of an awkward silence, Nick ask...

Andria in Uganda: An eye opener
http://andriainuganda.blogspot.com/2008/07/eye-opener.html
Thursday, July 24, 2008. That they've stolen, or that they will. Christine further reveals that this one particular boy was lucky that he was so young. Older children, she tells them, those about twelve or thirteen years, would be beaten or stoned to death. If they are found to have stolen from local merchants. She tells the group horrible stories of mobs burning homeless thieves to death in crowded markets. And the sad reality - mob justice goes almost entirely unpunished in Uganda. What is this blog?

Andria in Uganda: Leaving Africa
http://andriainuganda.blogspot.com/2008/07/leaving-africa.html
Saturday, July 26, 2008. We have a really emotional day today - most of us go to visit the street kids home at Nsambya one more time, to say goodbye to the boys. It's quite a big deal, and the boys have practiced a traditional African song and dance which they perform for us. They have put paint on their bodies (likely paint we donated! Nick takes a video of them yelling "THANK YOU SOFTCHOICE! At the top of their lungs. I have to figure out how I can continue to support these great people when I get back...
