Quiet day with emergency lights!

Monday morning started with, as is tradition, a morning meeting for all UCC staff, where among other things we made a master plan for the week. Gavin drove out to some schools with online gifts and got various tasks done along the way.

Best friends

 
Lunch time


Sarah, who has lived in our baby home. She likes her new foster family and is doing well! The same goes for her older brother, Samuel, who attends boarding school at Hope Primary

The volunteers and the mobile clinic staff worked from the office where we are well underway with some modifications to the workflow with regard to the medical reporting. The system we are using now gives us a better overview, but it takes a little time to teach all employees the new workflows. But it is coming along and everyone is in good spirits. :-)
In the afternoon the teaching family Lawaetz and Ruth headed for Kampala and Entebbe. The plan was to visit the hairdresser before Ruth and Anna, their oldest daughter who is 13 years old, were going on a flight from Entebbe to Denmark. BUT we will never do that again! The journey to Kampala should take one hour ... it took three and a half hours and a lot of time the traffic stood completely still, so it was a very desperate drive that ended with panic overtaking disaster flashing lights, but we did check in a second before the time we had called in and agreed would be our very last chance to check in. Phew ... the plan in Denmark is that Anna will return to family, friends and volti-training and be looking forward to when the rest of the family comes in one month. Ruth will be with our boys at their boarding school for the Ascension Day holiday and be on Joan's Child Care Denmark booth at Ledreborg the first of June, and then head back to Uganda.
