The next 2 photos is of a roadside market at Mbale, these markets are everywhere, usually selling basic foods and sometimes clothes or other basic goods, such as charcoal etc.
Marianne and I had talked about visiting Sipi Falls (3 Waterfalls close to each other) together. So we travelled up the mountain with her Ugandan family. The next shot is a scenery shot on the way up there, where we stopped to buy some matoke from the roadside.
Near the local township there is a small lookout hill which we climbed to take the following 3 shots, Maz and I, Sipi number 1 and an amazing school on the mountain top. If you took a profile of the different schools that are all over Uganda there is an incredibly diverse range of locations, quality and so on.
We only visited one of the falls, the smallest one, which is Sipi 2. It is 68 meters in height. The next photo is of Maz and some Ugandan family crossing the bridge on the way to the waterfall.
This photo is looking out from the cave behind the waterfall. It has been used for salt mining and also for cattle (that lick the mineral salts.)
That will do for the Mbale photos. well maybe just 2 panoramas, one from the lookout at Sipi, and one of Mount Wanali. (click to see bigger photos of these ones.)
