We stopped for lunch and some shopping in the provincial town of Kasese. It is one of the fastest-growing towns in Uganda and a stopover destination for tourists who flock west to explore the Queen Elizabeth National Park, hot springs, the Kazinga Channel, Kibale National Park, and access to the foothills of Mt Rwenzori. Compared to the rest of the country, the city was very clean and well-maintained. We had a great lunch at the Sandton Hotel. We also found a good Forex place with a 3665 UGX / USD rate, just opposite the hotel.
