From Jeff: Ntunga

Angelo and I went to Ntunga market today.

From Jeff: getting home from Ntunga

We couldn't find our ride home (or he never came back), so we had to take the "motos" home. It turned out to be a rewarding adventure

From Jeff: Delayed at Kigali airport

Apparently, a passenger on the plane lost their cat, so the crew has to find it before we board.
Can't make this stuff up...

From Jeff: Back to basics

The last 24 hours have been very intereting. It started with the electricity going out right around dark. During the few hours it was out we got perspective about how much of this country lives...
It wasn't until much later that we all realized there was no water. No one is sure why, some think the pump is broken, but no one seems concerned. I think it happens often...

My Home for the Week (Guest House)

This is my room for the week! Glad I brought my yoga mat. In the mornings, I do a quick practice looking out over the beautiful banana trees on the farm.

We have the luxury of hot water on most days. Yesterday was great - we had an overnight visit of a swarm of big flying bugs. The dead ones were scattered all around the entrance area, and some found their way inside too!

I later found out that these little creatures are a delicacy for some tribes in Africa. I think they'd be crunchy. Yum. :)

Also learned from Micheala, one of the volunteers at the Village, that sometimes there are flying worms too!

If you can see far....you can go far.
