Enrebbe Airport Uganda

Boy that was a long flight after travelling from the UK to SA then on to Uganda 4hrs on a little plane. ✈️ Reminded me of the good old days when you thought you were going to run out of runway before you got airborne. Before we get on the ground crew insist we must wear a mask 😷 Covid regulations are still strong on Uganda flights. Mask what Mask..? No one told us we needed one. 🙄 Insteps a mum with 3 children all boys that have been running up and down the walk ways driving everyone made with their energy. There Mum had spare marks in her handbag and came to our rescue. "A nice shade of pink" but ha who's complaining if it means we get on the flight...lol
We land in Uganda at 2:30am
visa check ✔️
passport ✔️
yellow fever certificate ❎
flip were is it..?
After much hunting around I found it. Boy I hate that feeling. 😩 immigration check ✔️
We are in.!
We told under no circumstances that we should leave the airport before our guide arrives at 6am🙄.
So time to sort out the usual stuff money exchange and the all important SIM cards for the phone. We buy a couple of bottles of water and take the opportunity to grab a Power Nap before a 9hr drive to the west of Uganda. 6am arrives and we meet our guide for the next 3 days William stands there with a sign to identify us. Lol......we are the only ones come out of the airport. 😂

UGANDA
We leave the airport in the dark William says that it will get little around 7:30am has we drive around the suburbs of Kampala with the sun raising you can start to feel and see the country coming alive with activity. We drive through the local roads with a 9hr drive ahead of us and already you can see the difference of Uganda to South Africa. The people here move with a purpose everyone seems to be heading somewhere doing something. Maureen my freind in the UK from Uganda said we had to have a driver when we were here. I full understand why. It is hectic the main mode of transport is the boarder-boarder (motorbikes) they have been brought in from India, young or old male or female everyone is driving them darting around with often the whole family onboard going to church or carrying their produce to the market to sell. But what ever they are doing for the car driver it is hectic. (thanks for the tip Maureen)Les mer
