the bad place

Saturday was our one 'day off' in Jinja.
We used the time well.

All 9 of us went on a white water rafting trip down the beginning of the white nile.
Needless to say, it was intense.

The trip consisted of 11 rapids, four class 5, five class 3/4, and the rest class 2.

The last rapid of the day was a monster class 5 called the bad place.

No white water rafting company in Canada would dare to take customers on something like this.

Kris, Kori, Ernest, Sheri and I all flew out of the raft. The rest were lucky enough to stay. The next 3 seconds under water felt like an eternity. We were all rescued by kayakers after that.

Worth every shilling.

Not much longer before I hop on a plane for home. See you guys at the airport.

We are all safe and healthy and thank you for your prayers.
