Noah (on the left) is my best friend here thus far, and the only man I've befriended who hasn't asked me out...yet! Haha!! He's completely deaf, signs, works for the Ugandan Nat'l Association for the Deaf as a teacher. We went to the "shirt factory" in Kampala to chat with the guys who iron the UNAD/USAID logos. They do this all day and into the night...only to make a ten thousand shillings a week (approx 2,115 Ushs = $1.00). But they are very passionate and engaged in promoting deaf education.
More on this later...power will be out in a few minutes for the rest of the afternoon, which means it's time to go to the vegetable market.
