Because the goodbye to the children last night was so emotionally draining, I forgot to mention our experiences Friday morning. We had decided it would be nice if we could add a little something to the children's Friday night dinner (this was before we knew there would be a big celebration hosted by the bishop). Somehow, it was decided to buy chickens and, oh, by the way, we had seen many chickens at one of the many food stands in Mukono on our walk, so we knew where to get them. And since refrigeration is not common in Uganda, fresh meat means live chickens. So Friday morning, we loaded up the clown van and headed to the chicken store and bought 20 fat roosters. Now, as an animal lover, this is a tad hard to write about, but it was for a good cause. Anyway, the vendors tied five roosters together by the legs into chicken bundles and then they were stuffed under the seats. When all 20 chickens were in the van, we reloaded and headed off to Humble. (The children enjoyed the chicken later on)
P.S., I passed on the hello to Adechan Sarah for the Careys last week and she returns her love
