Saturday night we found a large bug in front of the house. You have 2 pictures of it...the bug on the ground and then Cephas, our night watchman, holding the bug by its back legs. Very large bug! Creepy.
But, it got creepier the next night when I walked down our hallway and saw the wall moving. Okay, walls don't move, right? But this one was definitely moving. On closer inspection, I saw it was a wall of ants moving upward. I got Cephas and we found even more ants. See the 3 pictures - the first is the wall ants after they were mostly gone, but as you can see many were still there. The 2nd is the ants in my doorway - they were obviously moving their nest as you can see from all the eggs they are carrying. The 3rd picture is of the ceiling of our bathing room, where there were literally thousands of ants. There were also ants in big clumps in Abby's room in several places, on the floor, in and outside the water jerry cans, etc, etc. We ended up not being able to sleep in the house. It was Ellen's next to last night with us - what a memory!!
We are interviewing people for the bakery job, we took Ellen to the airport Tuesday night, we took Mutwahiru to the doctor Thursday morning, and we got back last night after going through severly flooded streets in Kampala
