Cold Drink, Armed Guard

IMG_1752.JPG

Nothing says "I"m back in Africa" quite like an icy cold Bitter Lemon when the going gets hot.  I remember having Bitter Lemon as a kid, but for some reason, you cant get it in the States anymore, at least I haven't seen it in decades.  The other thing that says, "I'm back in Uganda again..." is the plethora of armed guards all over the place.  I'll add more photos of them as I get them, it's not easy to take a photo of an armed guard here but I got this one of a guy guarding the cafe where I was enjoying my cold Bitter Lemon.  I dont even think his gun has a magazine clip in it as there was an empty hole where the clip should be (listen to me, like I'm such an expert on ammo clips...).  But anyway, it's always an interesting experience to be in a country where people openly carry firearms.  Ahhhhhh, Uganda...But seriously, it's a great country.  Once you get past the armed guards all over the place.
