AJ's been gone since early Saturday morning and we have been trying to stay busy to help the time pass more quickly. I haven't been good at taking pictures lately so I don't have any of us since he's been gone.
Friday we were able to go downtown and have lunch with him. We usually get chick-fil-a so it worked out really well that it was Cow Appreciation Day! Ari loves to dress up and he was so proud to walk around downtown with his little cow costume on.
There also happened to be a fundraiser going on downtown that Edy's ice cream was sponsoring. It was a good day for him to be dressed like a cow since there was cow stuff everywhere, including a real one.
With AJ being in Uganda, we weren't really sure what communication we were going to have especially since they are 8 hours ahead of us. Sunday we were able to chat online but then he was going to be on an island for several days after that and said there wouldn't be any communication at all. But then I had a missed phone call from him on Monday and he left a voicemail. So Tuesday I had my phone with me all day in case he tried to call again. He did get to call and attempted several times but we could never really hear each other. He sounded very excited so that was all I needed to hear to know that he was doing just fine.
The island that he is on right now is a two hour boat trip on Lake Victoria. Here is a link that shows what that ride is like.
There is also a facebook page that they will try to update when they have internet access. Right now on the island they don't have that, so I'm sure a lot more pictures will be posted once they are back on the mainland in Uganda.
