- Truck Life Begins: Kenya to UgandaHello! Overland Truck life is going well. The truck is really well equipped, even with drinking water which I am happy about (save my $1-2 a day water budget).

- Cruising the Crater LakesHamid was waiting for me in front of my hotel at 9am sharp. Having become accustomed to ‘Africa Time’ I assumed 9am actually meant somewhere around 9:30am and was caught a little off guard.

- "I am strong"We, mzungus, are weak. That's a thought that often came to my mind seeing the locals walking and cycling for miles and miles, carrying heavy loads, going barefoot. That morning as we leave Nguringo lodge and have to climb up Posted by Petravs in Uganda 2011 | Jun 30, 2011
- The boat trip of a lifetime!After meeting mountain gorillas you have to come up with some serious stuff to impress us even more. So the day after the gorilla tracking is really rather boring. We have one more day and night so spend at Nguringo Posted by Petravs in Uganda 2011 | Jun 29, 2011

- Chimp tracking in Kibale forestIt's very likely you hear the chimps before you see them.
