I'm okay

Last weekend there were some riots in Kampala surrounding a disagreement between Museveni, the president and the Kabaka, or king, of Buganda - the kingdom that Kampala is located in. This is just to let everyone know that I am fine and never felt I was in any danger. As I am in a different kingdom, the only affect I saw were some interesting discussions in the staff room.

I had written a longer post, but vista and XP are not compatible...

I hope you're all well.

Short Update From Mom

For those who’ve seen the news about riots in Kampala . . . they’re far away from Becky. The tribe/kingdom involved is not the one in her area, so her fellow teachers and townspeople don’t seem at all concerned. School has started, and addition to Biology, Becky is now teaching one class of 9th grade Algebra. Internet appeared in town, but then disappeared when the facility didn’t pay their electric bill, so news will be slow while she’s teaching.
