Rwanda

About nine hours of bumpy roads and checkpoints and I'm here in Kigali, Rwanda. It was a beautiful drive covered with lush green rolling hills and terraced farmlands. The city here is much cleaner than Kampala. And the Boda Boda drivers give passengers a helmet to wear, so you should be happy about that mom. I wandered around the city for a while trying to find a hotel. It seems there is some sort of conference going on and the first four hotels I checked out had no available rooms. I finally found a place here a little bit over budget but tonight I'm going to enjoy my first hot shower in Africa.
