A trip for you to Uganda and Rwanda–September 19-October 21, 2018
November 10,2017
Dear Adventures With Julia followers,
Many of you have commented that you really enjoyed our recent adventure to Central and Eastern Europe and I want to thank you sincerely for your heartwarming comments. Sometimes, when it is late, I am tired and Mark wants me to turn off the lights and go to bed, I wonder why I keep on writing. Your comments motivate me to stick with it.
We are home and recovered now and getting back into the swing of our regular life. I am sending you the following information and invitation because it relates to travel and may tantalize you to come along for an exciting adventure of your own.
A couple of friends and I have put together this exciting 13-day adventure in Uganda and Rwanda. The trip dates are September 19 through October 1, 2018 and will include such highlights as: see, hear and feel the wild departure of Lake Victoria into the Nile River; go boating on the Kazinga Channel, which hosts the greatest biodiversity of wildlife on the planet; safari search for tree-climbing lions and herds of elephant; track gorillas in the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest; meet and interact with the Batwa (Pygmies); experience what has been and is being done to help the Batwa adapt to life outside the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest they were expelled from in 1992; help build a house for a Batwa family; see how the Rwandans have recovered from the 1994 Genocide and more.
This adventure is also a fund raiser for one of our favorite charities, the Kellermann Foundation. The foundation was started by our family physician, Dr. Scott and Carol Kellermann, who went to Uganda 15 years ago to study the condition of the pygmies. What they learned, motivated them to move to SW Uganda where they could help the people directly. You will not believe what they have accomplished there in such a short time, unless you visit the place. Their mission says it all. “To provide resources for health, education, spiritual outreach, and economic empowerment for the benefit of the Batwa pygmies and adjacent communities.”
If you have any interest in learning more about this adventure or know you want to join us, please send me you mailing address and phone number and I will send you a brochure that provides all the details. I look forward to hearing from you.
Happy travels, Happy life,
Julia

Dear Julia, Thank you for the kind invitation. We had an amazing trip to the dark continent back in with many unique adventures. I wish I was in better health to even consider joining you on yours. Annamaria
I too am sorry about your health. Am glad you did get to Africa? What countries did you visit? Good to remember the good times, places and experiences.
Hope you have a good day today.
