I arrived at the end of january in Jinja.Almost every day it was raining but also every day it was sunshine.I got constantly sunburned even when it was cloudy.Jinja is on 1100m above sea level,the sun is very strong.Bring sun protection!!!

Don`t take fotos at the dam/bridge which leads to Jinja.If you take fotos(like me:-)))be aware that soldiers will question you,control you.Do not give your camera.Behave friendly,explain that you didn`t know better and ask how/what would be the way to solve the problem/issue.Be aware that you violated the law!Money will solve the problem fast(as for me 20000Uganda shillings -10Us Dollars)made my day:-)And I still got the beautiful fotos from the wildlife next to the dam!
