Treating horses!

I was absolutely thrilled to find myself on Saturday treating horses in Uganda!  I was not really aware that there were many horses around this area so to find that there were was just great!!  It really made my weekend!

On Sunday I went & watched my friend Rachel complete the Buganda 5km Road Race in Kampala.  Buganda is the tribe that is in the Kampala area & this is the first time they have held this event!  Aside from the VERY early start in the morning it was great fun! Not sure if they had actually measured the distance before the event as everyone got back extremely quick (think they got the 5km mixed up with 3km!) but it was a nice thing to be doing on a Sunday morning & all ‘muzungus’ who took part were very much welcomed by the Buganda people.  It was very impressive to watch people  running even in flip flops & there were even 4 people in wheelchairs competing which was great as their chairs are nothing like what you see on the tv but very very basic ones.  Shame I have such a dodgy back as I would have love to join them!  Well done to all who took part!!
