Rwanda, Rwanda!

Kigali, Rwanda



Well we left the best to second last: Rwanda.
This place has gone through a recent genocide you would not believe it. There are reminders along the way as you see the convicted and guilty work the roads and fields in their uniforms.
Don't get me wrong though, the locals don't want to ponder on 1994. They have moved on very fast and are very proud to be Rwandan. The people are so nice and friendly, the country so green and beautiful and they really need tourists to come over [OR Muzungu's as they call us], and enjoy themselves, so GET YOUR ARSES OVER HERE.
What do they offer: try this...


These endangered fella's are so cool. We also went and visited the chimps and other primates around the place. On the West coast is beautiful Lake Kivu. Sip beers there at sunset and the word 'heaven' comes to mind.

We even had a village to ourselves. The locals danced, sang and laughed with us. Most used to be poachers but now they get dosh from the likes of us... all good in the hood.

Rwanda we love you, we will be back. People spread the word... this is a jewel...
