The Back-home-syndrome.

For 3 of the 4 expedition members the trip ended early this morning when the plane re-entered belgian airspace and we finally set foot on belgian soil at 6h30 this morning after an 8hour flight back from entebbe.

two days before leaving we met up with shawn one last time and wished him the best of luck for the following two remaining months he was left in the pearl of africa. shawn looked a bit sad but it can also be his sickness.( shawn felt a little sick the last few days. thank god it was nottin bad)

As for Lio, Gert-jan and Benj, the trip was almost over. after we left murchinson falls national park on wednesday, we had to spend most of thursday in the kampalan taxi-park cuz benj forgot his painting in the murchinson. after four long hours of waitin and refusing tons of local fake gucci or armani wallets the painting finally made it to kampala.(thank u yebo & richi)

now that we have mentioned murchinson, that trip was really nice. we finally got to see some real african wildlife such as the lion and the elephant. it's hard to put in words, just believe us when we say it was really worth it.

after all of this we had just one last trip before returning to the european pearl wich we all call home=> Belgium.(still no gov ey?). just one more day to fill and we agreed we'd spend it in entebbe.

entebbe. what to say about entebbe, after walking around the taxi park in the mornin we decided to try out the zoo. much to our surprise we had to pay five times the price of a local's entry fee becauze we were white!!! bye bye zoo hello botanical gardens. no entry fee here cuz we snuk in trough victoria lake. the gardens are pretty nice. lots of old trees to see and there are a monkeys runnin around wich gives it a little safari touch. much to our regret we ad about enough of the gardens after an hour wich left us with nothin more then pay the stupid admission price to the zoo. but thank to Gert-jan's trading skillz we reduced our entry fees to only three times the local fee.

we should also mention that friday was i think th end of the muslim fasting periode. they celebrated this with a huge get together in the zoo. lots of people in the zoo that friday and when we left at around 5-ish there was still a huge cue waitin to get in.

after that we just packed all our stuff and left for the airport.

little factbook:

We saw our first traffic accident today. some lady left a junction made a u turn and crashed her car into a wall. strange , very strange.

gert-jan got hit by a car just a few hours before we left uganda. he got hit by a car while we were walkin back home from the zoo. the lady that hit him apoligized. we had her arrested and she is now waiting for her sentence.

Thank u for supporting us and helping raise money for the softpower mission. we cashed in a total of just over 3million ug-$ or somethin like 1400 euros.

the gertjan story is true, but we didn't have her arrested. we just gave her the mean look and walked away after cursing some dutch swear words.
