Some of us girls went to Jinja on Thanksgiving Day. We had Anya and Galya from the Ukraine, Lilli from Germany, and then Robin and me from the U.S. - so it was not technically a Thanksgiving outing.

| We first went to the Source of the Nile |
 |
| Anya and Galya negotiated a price for the boat ride |

| The White Nile |
 |
| Our guide |
 |
| A shopping island |
 |
| In the dry season, these are in great place, but now they are flooded |
 |
| We went inside and shopped. First time shopping in a flooded shop |
 |
| Then we took off our shoes to go to the "Source of the Nile" |
 |
| The rocks were killing my feet! |
 |
| Too Funny |
 |
| The swirling water is where the spring is that feeds the White Nile |
 |
| A beautiful hotel and then on the other side, a run-down village - such a contrast |
 |
| The government wants the people to go somewhere else, but they will not leave - they only know a fishing life |
 |
| The first port in Uganda |
 |
| Tourists! |
