It’s been almost 3 months since I last shared the best of my Instagram feed with you, so that’s what I am going to do today.
The East Africa photos you’ll find in this list include, as always, pictures taken near bodies of water (what can I say? I am Pisces), at hotels, and at the magical time of sunset.
You’ll also find some aerial photography: pictures taken from tall buildings or from the plane.
I am pleased to share that the very best of these photographs—or at least the ones my followers liked most on Instagram—are of my hometown, Bukoba. You’ll find those pictures at the very end of this list.
Without further ado, here you go!

No. 37: The End of a Long Hike, Magamba Nature Forest Reserve, Lushoto, Tanzania
Ending a day of hiking through the Magamba Nature Forest Reserve with my soon-to-turn-71 year old mother the day before her birthday.
This view was such a reward after a perilous descent from the Magamba viewpoint which had us trekking backwards on essentially all fours.
Where next, Mom?
Hahaha…Go to Lushoto, Tanga, Tanzania (With Photos) to see more pictures taken during our hike through the Magamba Forest.

No. 36: Excursion on Water, Lakeside Escape, Mukono
Finally, we were on the boat to Lakeside Escape. It’s an interesting 45-minute boat ride across Lake Victoria to get there. This is definitely my new go-to water place when I am in Kampala. Good food, great attentive service, wonderful views and a bunch of things to do when you get there.
Go to bit.ly/LakesideEscape to find out more about what there is to see and do at Lakeside Escape. (Lakeside Escape also offers accommodation which you can book through the link above. Although I have never spent the night there, I’ve seen several of their rooms and it is definitely on my to-do list.)
