After stopping at the Red Chilli backpackers to pay for a Murchison Falls trip, Kody and I went to the Uganda v Niger football (soccer) match. It was a qualifer for the 2008 ANC, so everyone was very excited. We arrived just before the match started, and had to crawl our way up the stands to find seats.

"Sports philanthropist" Michael Ezra made quite a spectacle sitting on the pitch in in his red tracksuit, surrounded by white track-suited guards and a huge umbrella á la Puff Daddy.

After Uganda defeated Niger, he went out to congratulate the players, flanked by the guards.

We headed back home on a boda boda - second scariest ride of my life. Check out the video Kody took from the back of the bike.
