Countdown to the Spirit of Uganda!

Oh, the millions of details that are involved in bringing the Spirit of Uganda Tour to the USA! Our friends in Uganda just sent us these photos from their final travel preparations - packing, making skirts from straw and checking other performance supplies.

Back at UA Dallas, we have prepared their rooms (for the girls - the boys are staying at an undisclosed location, haha), organized a mountain of donated snacks, fruit & water, swept the auditorium stage, made room for lots of drums, painted welcome signs, and, of course, ordered the welcome dinner of beans, rice & Texas fajitas (plus cup cakes, an Ursuline must!).

At this moment, The Spirit of Uganda performers are currently on their second flight, somewhere between the USA and London. We at UA are eagerly and enthusiastically awaiting their arrival this afternoon!
