Well, it's officially our second holiday here in Uganda and boy are we pumped! We got off school on Friday the 15th of December and spent the first week just chillin...AND GUESS WHAT???!!! WE GOT A DOG!!! Her name is Mpologoma, or Mpolo or Polo for short, which, in Luganda means "lion". We named her that because her species, Rhodesian Ridgebacks, were originally bred as lion hunters. Everyone is so happy. These are pictures of her. She is 6 weeks old.
For the holiday we are going to Murchison Falls for 3 days, where we may get our first look at wild elephants and giraffes. Then, we're headed to Sesi Island for a day, also known as the Chimp Island because it is chock full of chimps. Supposedly, there is one that loves to throw things at people. Maybe we'll get a repeat of our video!
