After a disappointment about the cost of entering the national parks to finding the lovely Kikonko lodge on lake Albert we decided that $240 to drive 2 hours in Queen Elizabeth Park and see nothing was not worth it, <\/div>\n
So we headed towards the source of the Nile at Lake Victoria <\/div>\n
This made Milly happy as we could call into the only carrefour in Uganda and get some proper food, Rural Uganda is very poor and shop are a little, lets  say basic. <\/div>\n
We ended up at the amazing Kalagala overland campsite at a waterfall on the river nile. <\/div>\n
We are paying 12\u00a3 pppn night for this setup, all the covered area is only for us. <\/div>\n
The communal area has an amazing restaurant and a campfire… What a campfire. <\/div>\n
Well we could be in Wales at the campsite at lake llyn Gwyned for 40 quid packed like sardines..<\/div>\n
Miy is looking at Bats not birds swooping over the rapids, thousands of them. <\/div>\n
