A far cry from the lazy, slow and wide Nile in Egypt, the Ugandan Nile is literally full of life, and a trip on the Victoria Nile is great opportunity to get a glimpse of it.
While the sun was burning on our heads and shoulders, we embarked on a boat on the bank of the Nile, or the Victoria Nile, as this stretch of the mightiest river of Africa is called. As soon as we got moving, the temperature became agreeable again. Very soon, we spotted the first hippos, turning their little ears around, and looking at us in surprise. We were excited to see this group of enormous animals, and you could hear cameras clicking all around. It got more exciting when we spotted a crococile on the bank, being disturbed in his afternoon rest and moving into the Nile. After a while, we also saw a group of elephants on the river bank, but they also spotted us and moved away.
