The Long Road Home
We got up around 8 AM and went to have breakfast. After that, we finished packing our luggage and loaded the truck, because it was time to return to Belgium.
First, we had to drive back to the airport in Entebbe, which was about a seven-hour drive on a very rough road. There were potholes and speed bumps everywhere. During the drive, Maud and I played a game of Scrabble against Thijs.
When we arrived in Entebbe, we went to Via Via to have dinner and play some games, where we continued our Scrabble match. While playing, Thijs had to ask Annalies and Pieter for backup because he was losing miserably. Later that evening, around 8 PM, we took our last group picture and went to the airport. Our flight was scheduled to leave at 00:05. By around 2 AM, everyone was settled on the plane, and we finished our game of Scrabble, in which Thijs beat us by 10 points with his last move. This was all thanks to Annelies and Pieter, who helped him win. After that, we tried to get some sleep.
