What was the most interesting place I visited this week?:

I visited Kampala, the capital city of Uganda. Like any big city, it is very busy with a lot of people. Kampala has a population of over 1.5 million people. There is a lot of traffic in the city because a lot of cars use the narrow roads. Also, there are a lot of bodabodas in the city.
