I found David interesting. I recommend this tour of an old city - Being away from Uganda for so many years, I needed a guide to take me around places of interest. I found David to be chatty and interesting. The cultural meal reminded me of meals I used to eat many years ago. I recommend this tour of an old city. Thanks for your time.
