Uganda news – Two Danish tourists drown in Lake Bunyonyi

DANISH TOURISTS GO MISSING IN LAKE BUNYONYI
One of Ugandas most scenic lakes, Lake Bunyonyi near Kabale, has apparently claimed the lives of two Danish tourists, who were last seen swimming off the shores before they disappeared.
The lake is known to claim victims regularly but it is extremely rare that foreign tourists are involved in swimming accidents. The pair of travelers were staying at a local resort, for which Lake Bunyonyi is also famous, many located on the islands which dot the lake, and by night fall Thursday the search was called off until daylight today, Friday.
According to a source in Kabale the police has resumed search operations already this morning and are confident that the bodies will be recovered. The camp operators meanwhile were reportedly busy attempting to use available information on the two guests to establish family contacts back home in Denmark to break the sad news. Condolences are expressed by the eTN East Africa team to friends and family.
