London to Entebbe

Made it to London without incident and schlepped over to the new BA terminal, which is huge and very cool. I think it is the most fascinating airport in the world to watch the comings and goings of where planes arrive from and depart to. Met up with my travel companion, Ray Jordan, CEO of Self Help Africia and a self proclaimed serial hugger.

Onboard BA flight 63 I sat next to Joe from Castlebar, now living in Dublin. Joe is an oil man with Tullow Oil and is going to visit the oil fields in the north of Uganda. We had a nice chat about how the Irish lost the run of themselves in the boom and that we are both glad to see people coming to their senses these days, albeit sometimes not voluntarily. I then put on my sleep mask and slept six hours, woken by the pilot alerting us to landing.
