The Journey was Sweet: Uganda Malaria Documentary Trip

It has been crazy. I just got back from Uganda at the beginning of this week... These are a few of the "best of" pictures from the trip... It was such an amazing experience to be around such amazing people like the Bite Back Team and the people of Uganda!!

Our group picture at the Equator!! minus doug... I love all of these people!!

This is Jordan... She is super awesome!!

This is Sarah playin' some jump rope with some of the kiddos! She is so awesome! I tried to jump in a little after this picture was taken and I fell pretty hard... it was awesome...

When we pulled up this kid was chasing us... and when we left he was chasing us... He loved Mzungus!

The view from the hotel we stayed at... AMAZING!!

Took this picture through the window of an airplane on the way to Kasese from Kampala

It's crazy to think that Malaria was eradicated in the U.S. over 50 years ago but it is the number one killer in Uganda...

Before we left Kampala we interviewed some people that had gone through Compassions LDP program, which i believe means "Leadership Development Program"... They were awesome!

Yona was with us the whole trip... He was a great guy to hang with over there!

These are the nets that we handed out to a few families to help them prevent Malaria!
