Island in the sun

QA week of variable activities, but for me the highlight of the week was to go on a cruise to an island in the tropical sun.
OK, maybe the image is a bit pina colada by the pool?
In fact we drove to the edge of lake Victoria which incidentally is the largest single lake in the world, and got on a fishing boat with our bags and mobile dispensary. We were greeted after a two and a half
hour trip by very friendly locals who treated us to a lovely fresh fish lunch. Afterwards we stopped through beautiful lush tropical  countryside where there were no roads only footpaths. On arrival at a school we set up a mobile clinic, limited dispensary, HIV and cardiac counselling services and blood testing.  We all worked hard and certainly felt somewhat fatigued at the end of it. Night came fast as it does in these parts and we spent some/time sitting/around a fire by the lakeside with the flames, moon and fireflies to illuminate the area , fantastic! A late supper finished the day,and we retired to our respective tents and bunkhouses.
4.30 am and a tropical storm arrived to test our/tents! Sadly they all leaked and the advice that no showers were available on the island was incorrect, we all got a free cold early morning shower. It wasn't all roses in the bunkhouse, the thunder scared the goats and they all fled into the bedroom for shelter. My friend woke in the morning with a couple of them by his feet!
Next morning we did a second session, I chose a position under a large shady tree overlooking a bay ,that was another first for me. The locals hospitality was wonderful , they made us feel so welcome .We returned back to Wellspring refreshed and exhausted , what an amazing experience.
