Rwenzori Unique Eco-Tourism Association

Rwenzori Unique Eco-Tourism Association. Thats where were spending the night. A little campsite on top of a hill in the Rwenzoris, with a few huts made of straw and mud. And a few huts made of straw and concrete. We have a beautiful view of the peaceful Ugandan countryside. Sounds of children playing, cows mooing roosters doing their thing, and the odd boda boda (motorcycle) echo up from the landscape below. Walking here today we were constantly followed by a children's chorus of "Howayoo!! Howayoo!!" and the odd "How's life?" which seems to be special for the region. We have a guide with us, Brian, who speaks good English, and are well taken care of Elijah, the camp supervisor. Who is very proud of his campsite.

  2. YOM: Sounds like an interesting trip, "boda boda" seems to be the only exeption from sounds created by nature itself. Thanks for another coulorful, expressive little essay!
    Howayoo!

  3. YOM: Roosters do a "cock-a-doodle-doo", as far as I have done a very modest research. "Kuckeli-ku" in Swedish, so now you have to find out what it would be in Swahili...
