A Comfortable Start

A travel blog entry by sps5032

My family was giving me a hard time about having only cockroaches to eat in Rwanda and told me to make sure I remember to pack toilet paper. I was expecting something a step above from their jests but I was not expecting what I have experienced in one day in Rwanda.

dressed.

We drove the familiar road to Giti, the first half hour on paved road. Turning right onto the dirt road we headed toward Lake Muhazi where our annual festival will again be held this year.
