Hot shower

I'd like to describe the lengths I go to get a hot shower...

First I bike the 18km from my town to the nearest large town (Mbale)


which, before the sharp left north, is dirt road like this


and then from then on it's paved road that's full of potholes,



dust,



and general testicular discomfort. But finally I arrive in town and chain my bike up


in front of this hotel

.

 which I sneak into to make use of the showers which are meant for the guests. Sneak into doesn't amount to much since because I'm white no one questions anything I do. But the point is that I'm not paying anything for this hot shower!


The shower


is soooooo convenient with the toilet being in the same room :p . Anyway it's totally worth it because it transforms me from this


to this
