Uganda beat Niger this weekend 3-1. Woo Uganda!
I went to the football/ soccer game, it was on Saturday...
The crowd was cheering almost the entire time, it was nuts! Really though, I had the time of my life.. it was crazy kind of funny. Just lots and lots of people and happy people...
The stadium was in Kampala and it was 100 % packed fully of screaming fans. Everyone was decked out in Ugandan clothes, face paint, flags, everything.
I had my first beer on tap in Uganda also, and that was quite a highlight.
After the game we left the stadium, and there were lines of cars and peoples for miles you could see up the road. We walked along the railroad tracks, following the leaders on our way out of there. The sun was even setting, people were still cheering, man it was cool.
It was too far to walk all the way, so we took a taxi the rest. Ha ha, some man gave me a maraca as I was leaving the stadium, so the whole taxi ride people were still cheering, and me too with my new maraca. It was just lovely.
We had our bus ride home today from Kampala and it took about 5 hours. There is a road, about an hour section of not goodness. It is bumpy, dirt flying in your face, even when I wipe my face, a layer of dirt comes with it. Woah. We usually sit in the back of the bus, and it's almost like a rollercoaster at Kings Dominion or something. We fly up in the air after speed bumps, which do come about every 2 feet. haha, exaggerating, but it feels like it sometimes.
The thing is though, when I have a window seat and my ipod on, I love to sit back, even if I'm a little squished, it's just really nice.
One funny random thing that happened this week... another volunteer has this ring that has symbols including skulls on it. I realized he has left it on a table, so I picked it up for him. I overheard some men asking where the ring went and someone pointed to me. Their heads turned so fast in my direction...
They thought the ring may have belonged to a devil worshipper...
I told them it wasn't mine, but one of my friends, and then I explained that the volunteer who owned the ring was mearly a pirate, so they shouldn't be worried. hehe.
