ENTEBBE PHOTO GALLERY

 

Entebbe will be the first place in Uganda that you will experience if you travel to that country. That's where the international airport is.

As the Harvard researchers go to the field they will be spending some time in Entebbe, on the shores of Lake Victoria, too.

Here are some images from around that town.
