TWIN BIKERS RODE FROM MASAKA

Meet 22-year-old Peter Wasswa and Paul Kato. They say they are talented bike riders.

In fact, as you expect, they rode their way all the way to the venue, Namboole. But hee is the catch: they cycled to from Masaka, where they hail from, to Kampala to attend the festival!

You've got to give to them!

Fancy sharing some room with the birds high up there?

Play time

There is a cocktail of activities participants are taking part in, including a wobbly toss about in the inflatable castle.

There is a health camp, where people are asking medical practitioners health-related questions, and even having checks, such as for blood pressure, done.

A gaming area, manned by DStv, is available as well, with interesting computer games.
