At one point a huge male stood tall, pounded his chest loudly and ran towards us on all fours. There was a definite bottom-clenching moment as he ran at pace to within a foot of us, but fortunately continued up past us to another bush. A girl in the other group ...

I once wrote about my big time staff meeting in the halls of power, i.e. that military building of some random geometric dimensions. In fact at the last such meeting, just as we were about to adjourn, they presented me with a certificate of appreciation. The big big boss held it out for me with a handshake. I looked down at the flimsy paper that read, unsurprisingly, &#8216;Certificate of Appreciation.&#8217; I made a mental note that it seemed suitable ...

... restaurant before, but he likes spicy food so he was game. Daniel and Cindy already loved Indian food as did I. My super-spicy Lazeez Aloo Murg, a Punjabi curry, was excellent, as were the other dishes, and the decor was pleasant as well. It was good way for us to end our time together. Tomorrow Daniel and Cindy will be leaving at 7:00 for their flight out of Rwanda. I will have one more day here myself and Doc will be here for two more weeks of dental services and work on Smile Rwanda.

Chez Lando has been famous for its goat brochettes and ambiance for a long time, and we were not disappointed.

We want to help them establish their lives on a Biblical foundation, and we want them to see that one can have a lot of good clean fun as a Christian too!

Portion sizes are generous, as one tilapia easily serves three to four hungry guests, and prices are subdued at $10-12 per, with sides $2 ...
