Drive, drive, drive!
Pretty much a travel day today, about 370km in total from Kampala to Kibale in blistering heat. Nicknamed 'Mizungu' - 'white person' due to my current lily white complexion, should be a shade or two darker by Cape Town! Kampala itself has police and ...

Transfer to Kibale National Park, Uganda
Today was a travel day; we moved from Murchison Falls National Park to Kibale National Park along the western border of Uganda (bordering the Democratic Republic of Congo). We were prepared for a 9-10 hour drive, but were able to make it in less than 8 ...

Chimp attack!!!
... of English words, it was pretty funny. None of us knew how to spell it! Then yesterday afternoon we went chimp trekking in Kibale Forest, where about 1,400 chimps live. It was raining quite a lot and apparently the chimps aren't usually very active in the ...
Gorillas and mugging
So I have had my first mugging experience. While trying to get up to the place where you trek to see the gorillas from we got stuck in the mud by this village. The villagers told us the path further up was impassable and they helped push us out (an ...

Meeting the locals
This morning we went into the jungle, looking for chimpanzees, and we soon came across them. We heard them before we saw them, they make quite a racket and the noise is quite alarming. They are fascinating creatures. I have been surprised at how friendly ...

Day Forty Nine - Kibale National Park
