While in Kampala I avoided the crazy traffic of downtown and took advantage of the opportunity to see Abraham, one of our Ugandan staff working on construction in Tonj.  He has been in Uganda visiting his family and working on sending a truck of building supplies to Tonj.  We worked together to find the right truck.  The day was restful as well.  I was able to buy some spare parts for equiement in Tonj and some supplies to take with me to Tonj.

The highlight of the day was the Bible study that Bob (AID SUDAN) and his wife Suzy took me too.  It was a really interesting deep discussion; it was so good to be fellowshipping with missionaries in Kampala and see a bit of their social support here.  I was blessed by that and I made some new friends too.

Before leaving this morning I had more meetings regarding the truck of supplies to Tonj.  As I continued my trip I had to go through town and the traffic was so crazy I almost got scraped by a truck, thank God nothing happened and I was able to make it alive from that.  I was very tempted to use the siren to make a way, the fact I didn’t have a registration plate stopped me!!

I started my journey late from Kampala due to the meetings, and I drove north towards the border.  The second I was out of the city I was able to do a 4 hour trip before dark and now I stopped at Gulu.  I’ll continue the journey early in the morning crossing the Uganda/Sudan border and hopefully arriving in Juba before nightfall.  I would appreciate your prayers that everything goes smoothly with paperwork and safety.

I am glad to find the only internet cafe in town that serves food and free internet so I was able to speak with Suzy and the kids on Skype (love Skype) and write this blog.

Pray also for Suzy, we have been apart for a month and being alone with the kids has also not been easy.  Looking forward to seeing them all again hopefully by Tuesday.
