Itinerary

Day 1
Arrive today at Entebbe International Airport.  A driver will meet you to transfer you to Mbale, 5 – 7 hrs. drive, and your accommodations.

Days 2+
Your day could consist of feeding newborns, changing diapers, cooking, gardening, or just playing – mostly whatever they need at the moment. Without a doubt, expect to be quite tired by the end of each day. You are welcome to take days off if you wish.  Do some shopping in town or take a weekend excursion. Ask the sisters about transport if interested in a trip to Sipi Falls for a day or overnight.

Last Day 
Finally you will be returned to Entebbe International Airport or Kampala. Your pickup time can be arranged with the driver to depart 7 – 8 hours before departure of your flight. Save time by checking in on-line ahead of time.
