forgot this one....

This one's for my dearest Carebear. This is a Ugandan tea plantation, just for your comparison to the Indian variety. Note the presence of the random trees growing tall above the tea, scattered seemingly randomly...did we ever figure out what that was about? It seems like the Ugandan variety grows more densely and maybe isn't as tall, whada you think?

Hmmm... my extensive tea plant expertise tells me that the difference in elevation could be a factor in the bush to tree density. Clearly I have no idea, which our Makaibari officer friend would be disappointed to hear. Definitely does remind me of our trek from Mirik to Kurseong, though. The one we "almost" made in a day that we had plenty of water for. Ha.

LOVE YOU
