Just a small review. Michel had a small accident while setting up the cheese container.
He suffered of a concussion for 6 weeks and had some stitches in his arm. But a visit of two friends , Pim &Tanja livened up the place. This gave Michel the opportunity do some sightseeing. He had not left Fort Portal since our arrival in June 2010! We visited one of the most beautiful national parks of Uganda, Murchinson Falls and spend a couple of evening s unpacking gifts, sinterklaas sweets and some items that did not make it to the container. Unfortunately the visit resulted in malaria for Michel, but he recovered quite quickly. 
In the meantime Heleen guided two more groups of tourists in Uganda and Rwanda. One in October and one during the Christmas holidays. During a gorilla tracking one of the gorilla’s touched the guide and held his arm.
Setting up the cheese factory has been delayed by this all. But the arrival of Michel’s parents at the beginning of January are giving a huge boost.
Everybody is working to get the cheese factory finished mid February. Heleen is setting up a clientèle by making yoghurt, quark, full cream and fresh cheese at home at a regular basis. The kick of f of the selling started at a Christmas bazaar. This was a great success thanks to Pim and Tanja. The first samples of our products now have found their way to the most important lodges and hotels. Methods of making the products are improved and everybody is very positive. To be honest with all our activities, we were a bit lost.
