Happy Friday Friend,

Five of us will be leaving for Uganda tomorrow. After 24 hours of travel, we'll check into our hotel, which backs up on the idyllic Entebbe Botanical Garden. Sometimes, we can see monkeys in the trees or the driveway just outside the restaurant.

On Monday, the Botanical Garden and Lake Victoria (plus the hotel's swimming pool) will help us recover from jetlag.

I agree with Winston Churchill: "Uganda is the Pearl of Africa." And I can't wait to be there again and see it through the eyes of first-time visitors, Bob and Libby Canavan.

Stay tuned; we'll be coming to you live for three weeks 😊.

Gratefully,

Elaine

P.S. I'm delighted to report that over $33,000 has been donated to feed the children of Mustard Seed during this challenging time of failed crops and escalating prices. You are part of a fantastic group of sympathetic, caring supporters.
