That was quite a day that Saturday August 28th ... I was up by 8'ish ready to be picked up by the driver for 9. He was a little late. We dropped Sofet at the office and I headed out with Joseph for a bit of shopping. The first bank machine we went to was closed but I managed to score many shillings at the next. I picked up water, some soap, and a few treats for the driver's kids. Then it was off to IPPS (aka the office) for what turned out to be quite an adventure in Oracle land.
This RAC offering has been around for many many years but it's install still is mystifying. It is about 90% if not more prep and so little actual work with Oracle itself. Many of the concepts are quite foreign to me. I am working with a local named Ivan who can weave his way through most of the stuff that confounds me.
Unlike my jaunts into Ethiopia and Vietnam, I have done nothing but work. My little trip to the shopping centre yesterday plus a few additional drives have been my opportunities to see Kampala. Ann from the office suggested my going somewhere to hear some local music tonight but I cannot foresee finding the time. I got home about 9 last night and crashed almost immediately. It's more of the same today. I will gather my thoughts at the end of the day and update my contact in Ottawa.
