Last night in Uganda!

This morning at breakfast the owner asked us what we would like tomorrow for our last breakfast here. Chapel picked toast, samosas, and chipati with egg rolled up.  We came back from breakfast and started packing! Yay! I can't explain how relieved I felt filling up our suitcases!
 Shortly after breakfast a lady came over to braid Chapel's hair.  She said it would take about 4 hours, so Chapel got comfortable.  She brought her 1 month baby. Like all babies here, he was wearing a winter hat, long sleeves, socks and wrapped in 2 blankets. She kept him completely covered most of the time...I was afraid he would die from heat stroke! Andrew came in and sat on opposite end of the couch. He nearly sat on the baby! Had no idea it was there!
  Chapel watched 'Princess Diaries 2', VeggieTales, and Tom & Jerry.
 She had lunch on her pillow on the floor and never got up.
 SIX! hours later...she's finished!
 Chapel really wanted a rolex for dinner, so we walked up the hill and around the corner to our spot.
Tribe made us 4 rolex and 4 chipatis to put Nutella on later.


This is how Jude eats his rolex.
While eating we saw Allen, the director of the orphanage. Jude and I hadn't seen her since she we got him.  She was Jude's mommy for the first 2 years of his life, so it was nice to see her again and get a picture with her.
We also saw Brian and Liam, our friends who invited us over for dinner shortly after we first arrived in Uganda.  It was nice to be able to see them and say 'goodbye'.
Liam and Chapel
After dinner we got bathes and sent the kids to bed.  This guy isn't going to know what to think of a REAL bath!
Hope we can sleep tonight! So excited about getting on that plane to home tomorrow!
