Day 3 - Let's go CRANES!!
We started up the morning with a presentation and discussion with Patrick Bitature, Uganda's top entrepreneuer. It was really exciting. Everything we do ties with my previous favorite thing, which is a really good thing! The MUBS students were VERY excited to meet Mr. Bitature. He has had a really tough life and has accomplished many things to get to where he is today, including the Reign of Terror under Amin. Directly following the discussion, Miria, Bashir, Samuel (3 MUBS students) and I went to take pictures in the really nice hotel and almost missed the bus. Afterwards, we ate a wonderful Ugandan meal back at MUBS and headed off to a Futbol game. We watched the Ugandan Cranes defeat the Kenyan team. It was really neat to see the passion that the Ugandans had for their team and their country. The stadium is one of the largest in Africa. It was sad though, because the poverty stricken families of Uganda lived all around the stadium. One of my favorite moments of the day was when one of the Ugandan students, Michelle, and I realized we have on of the same favorite bands - Hillsong United!!
