When it came
time for the senior class trip, the guys opted out altogether, while all the
girls wanted to go. So off we drove then boated to Bulago Island, about 1 ½ hours
into Lake Victoria, to our own semi-private colonial house. For 3 days we
relaxed together, had some funny times, some devotional times, some TV/video
time, played games, slept, took lots of photos (the girls are ALL into photo
shoots!), and generally made some nice memories.

The house
had some really unique items inside and out. For instance, they had the largest
abacus I’ve ever seen, as well as a life-size carving of a man on a bicycle.
Not sure why someone would make them (both are heavy wood) and then bring them
to the island, but they’re certainly conversation pieces. There were other
wonderful and interesting carvings, an antique tub and bath setting, wooden
floors, rustic and attractive bedrooms and décor throughout. We enjoyed the geese,
the beach & pool, and overall had a great time.
We were all
amazed by the sunsets on both nights!
