Sankara Pan African Library (Sankara Library)

The Sankara Pan African Library is a beautiful space in Bugolobi, Kampala that I had the pleasure of visiting for the first time last month.

I won’t say much more about it; instead, here is a video that can show and tell you about it a lot better than I can.

Uganda Pictures #1: No. 49 Cheese & Wine, Kampala

I am still bemoaning the closure of No. 49 Cheese & Wine on Luthuli Avenue in Kampala, Uganda. It was a seriously cute and well-stocked wine and cheese store.

Uganda Pictures #2: Barbecuing in Kampala, Uganda

Kampala, Uganda to me is a city filled with simple pleasures. Hanging out in Kampala is not so much about where you go but who you hang out with.

In Kampala, gathering around a crate of beer (or some Uganda Waragi) in someone’s backyard can be more fun than being at the most stellar cocktail lounge in another city. Kampalans themselves are all the fun you need!

This picture comes from just one such hang in my uncle and aunt’s backyard. I can still taste this delicious chicken that was marinated in honey and soy sauce. The pork we made that same day was offfffff the hook! #GoodTimes

Uganda Pictures #3: I Survived the Nile

As though bungee jumping was not terrifying enough, the next day, I decided to go white water rafting for the first time. It was a lot of fun until about midway through the excursion I fell into a Grade 5 rapid called “The Bad Place” where I stayed under for a lot longer than was comfortable. When I saw someone wearing this shirt, I had to take a picture of it because it expressed exactly how I felt: I survived the Nile!

Uganda Pictures #5: The Bay, Kampala, Uganda

This view is so typical of Kampala, Uganda.

Originally known as the City of 7 Hills, Kampala has now expanded to include many more.

This means, therefore, that wherever you get a view of Lake Victoria (the world’s second largest freshwater lake by area) in Kampala, you’ll also invariably see hills off in the distance.

I love it! (This photo, like my last one, was taken at The Bay in Munyonyo.)

Fuego Cocktails & Restaurant, Muyenga, Kampala, Uganda

Fuego Cocktails & Restaurant in Muyenga, Kampala offers a whole lot as you can see from this board outside the establishment. What’s not listed on this board that I LOVE there is their Ethiopian/Eritrean food. My favourite cuisine, Ethiopian/Eritrean food at Fuego is the real deal! (The cocktails are pretty hot too.)

Nile High Bungee, Jinja, Uganda

As I sat at the bar waiting for the rain to subside and the bungee equipment to be assembled, the 44-m Nile High Bungee platform did not look daunting at all. But the horror of jumping off it!

Uganda Images/Uganda Photos #9: Red Chilli Hideaway, Kampala

Red Chilli Hideaway, Kampala

If ever you are in Kampala, Uganda and are looking for budget accommodation, then I couldn’t recommend more highly the Red Chilli Hideaway with its new purpose-built location in Butabika.

Although it’s a bit out of town, Red Chilli offers a complimentary shuttle service, 3 times a day, to and from downtown Kampala.

Good food, a well-stocked bar, 4G internet, a swimming pool, and very convivial atmosphere. What more could you ask for at those prices (as low as US$7 for campers and US$40 for a double room en-suite)?
