These photos are of Moreau House, the residence of the Holy Cross Community. The house while old and in somewhat of a state of disrepair is an absolute mansion compared to the surrounding residences in the Bugembe village. It seems in Uganda, and especially in the rural areas, that the two most lucrative jobs are either priest or politician as both guarantee meals and a roof over one's head everyday.

The small block house is the "guest house" where Shawn and I stayed while in Bugembe. We had our share of nightly insect visitors such as large cockroaches, other unknown insects and lizards crawling the walls.

The last picture in this set is the house cat. I wasn't a cat fan before this trip...this cat only reinforced that notion for me. (It really does have two different colored eyes)
