Lake Binyoni

Near Kabale, in south,western Uganda, near the Rwandan border, is the deepest crater lake in the whole country, and right beside the lake is a beautiful resort with pathways made of rock and swimming without risk of bilharzia.





On the five hour journey here, my fatigue set in, and I was glad to be heading out of the bush for a little while. Here is the best view of Queen Elizabeth Park.


Trees are at a premium for fuel. We saw many people carrying huge loads on their heads and backs.


Deforestation is happening.


Papyrus plants reminded me that I shall teach Grade 7 social studies again next year...those tricky Mesopotamians!


And then there were dusty hills, made worse by vehicle traffic...


and a rock mine with workers of all kinds.


Terraced gardens filled the misty landscape.
