Long Road to Kampala



So 24 hours in there has been alot happening for a start im writing this from Cairo with free food and coffee - awesome! though we nearly didnt make after we spent the night in the wrong terminal thinking our flight had been changed from 9am to 3pm and didnt realise the flight was with BMI an hour before our flight so lots of running fun! though the highlight of the night would have to be 1am races between chris and dave in the hallways of heathrow dave spun, bags went flying and trolley flipped and landed on dave all while i was videoing watch this space, youtube and facebook for the hilarity that is dave barr!

Anyhoo apparently Susan Boyle arrived before us at Heathrow we thought the Lurgan Mail had sent over few photographers for us but alas no! had a really comfortable night sleeping on the floor of a cafe with chris's feet hanging about me - nice! Chris is somewhere in Africa not really sure where but im sure he's chatting up somebody!

Arrival in Cairo was fun was like a scene out of 28 days later with ministry of health officials running around with masks and quarantine signs! dave started coughing so i screamed swine flu apparently not the smartest thing to do in a muslim country! its hot really hot thank goodness for aircon or I would be melted over this sofa! white people are so interesting its like we a rare breed and that when you seen one you just have to talk to them as if you somehow know them! surprisingly not starbucks were the first shop we saw coffee is now bad in three continents! loving bribing people got this guard to body search dave hilarous but TIA!


Were boarding final flight to entebbe so hopefully in twelve hours will be in Kampala when the real fun starts!
