Enroute to Entebbe

These are some of the pictures that I took while travelling to Entebbe from Brussells on 26 November 2011.

Mountain range in southern Europe.  Am still trying to figure out which one.

Christmas in Juba

Here are some pictures from our Christmas Dinner at Canada House in Juba, Republic of South Sudan.

First Blog

Okay, folks.  Here is my first post.  After this I am no longer a virgin blogger.  

It's Christmas Day in Juba, South Sudan. I am staying at Canada House with three other people and we are getting ready to receive about 20 other Canadians from various government and non-government organizations for Christmas dinner.  I'll post some pictures later. I'm happy to be working here right now but I do miss my all of my family, both immediate and extended. 


I haven't figure out how to change the date/time settings yet.  The system is going to say that I'm posting this sometime on Christmas eve but it is actually almost 9 AM on Christmas day here.  Hope all is well with everyone.  I'll post more pictures later. Right now I have to go clean bathrooms and mop floors.
