Last month I joined a group of colleagues for a sunset cruise on Lake Victoria. Aside from distant glimpses of the lake from my apartment complex and the occasional drive to/from the airport in Entebbe, I hadn't really spent time on/near the lake. The cruise was fairly sedate - far from a booze cruise, which suited me just fine - and we had a lovely time spotting birds and admiring the lush greenery along the shoreline.
This country is truly blessed in its weather and ecology and environment - I am thankful every day to serve in such a gorgeous and weather-pleasant country.
I have plans to go on a different sort of lake cruise in a couple of weeks so will hopefully have more pictures from a different area.

| To me, acacias are a quintessential sign of being in Africa. I love them. And if I am mistaken and this is not actually an acacia, just let me revel in my misconception :-). |

| A number of people in canoes were on the water - some fishing, some commuting. |
 |
| We saw tons of birds, including this pretty flock. |
