We landed in Juba and I was immediately detained by a scary man with tribal scars in his face. He confiscated my phone and started deleting pictures from it because he thought I was spying on them! What!? So this post has no photo.
Flexibility is our plan and that's good. It rained a downpour all day yesterday and the road to Mundri is so bad it is going to take 5-6 hours to drive it. As a result, we need to stay tonight in Juba. Elisapa, Julius' father, found a place for $70 that includes food! It's called the White Nile Lodge.
Flexibility!

Hillcrest Church and Falls Community Church have joined together to bring the Gospel as well as humanitarian aid to a remote village in Southern Sudan. The people of Southern Sudan have been devastated by the long civil war and genocide over religious freedom. Food security is the most important need in the area we are traveling to. We are going to help the village of Kalalayi build a farm that can sustain the village and produce enough extra as to sell in the local markets.

You do look rather "spy-ish" so I can understand his reasoning for wanting to delete hand puppets from your phone. And he must have been really scary if he scared you.....just saying....
ReplyDeleteToo funny - but glad you're okay!
