Taking A Break

I finally got a chance to travel down to Kampala. I did plan to travel down at the end of February, but it did not work out because my co-worker was on his annual leave so I had to stick around and attend meetings that he would usually attend. Of course, being around is not always a bad thing because I sometimes get to spend some good quality time with close friends of mine in Arua, having a cup of tea/coffee along with some bananas and bread.
Now when I mention in the title of this blog entry "Taking A Break" I do intend to mention about my time in Kampala, but please do not be deceived that it is my only intention. The picture posted above is what you can also call as the African Tea Time, but again, anytime is Tea Time in Africa. The picture was taken after Sunday Service and this is where I can tell you that many people here would take breaks between morning and midday/noon.

It was certainly refreshing to get down to Kampala. I'm not so much of a city person but right now, I believe that sometimes getting away for a few days to get to the city is fine as long as I do not stay there for too long. The reason why I enjoy is not because of the city full of people nor the various restaurants there, but the amount of AIM members I can relate to and share with. Sometimes it can get repetitive to see the same people but unable to share on a personal basis on the struggles/challenges you are facing because they cannot relate to your situation. It was definitely worth it having to take a break in Kampala after the intensive training.
