Time to go home
Thursday, March 28
We began the day enjoying breakfast with our good friend Moses Abasoola. It was good to see that he is doing well. Then off to the Market for some last minute souvenir & gift shopping. It has been a fast and busy two weeks, so the couple hours browsing the African marketplace was much appreciated. Price haggling is a new experience to some, but is expected for the best shopping experience here. Busy roads back to the compound allowed for us to etch the sights, sounds, and smells of Kampala into our minds for future memories.
It was soon time to set off for Entebbe airport for the long journey home. We were returning with only 13 checked suitcases instead of the 24 we brought with us. The extra glasses were going to stay in Uganda for future clinics. Kaitlin Smith, the new missionary nurse would also be able to test people for reading glasses after we leave. We are so grateful to have served as many Africans as we could, but it is still difficult leaving knowing there are so many with vision needs yet to be met.
This day ends while we are in the air headed to Dubai. We are a good tired but thankful to have made so many new friends and had some fantastic experiences! Many thanks to Colleen and Tim Stevenson for allowing us to be a part of their African ministry.
Blessings,
Norma Jean
