Safe in Rwanda

We survived the 24 hour bus ride and arrived in Kigali, Rwanda on Thursday afternoon. Rwanda is AMAZING! I hadn't even realized how stressful Kenya was until I came here. People don't harass us nearly as much, and I'm also much less scared of getting hit by a car here. :)

We've been to a number of genocide memorial sites (it's the 15 anniversary). I have so much to write about all of this, but I'm going to wait and write a longer post when I get back to Kenya. It's amazing how Rwanda has been able to completely turn itself around in just 15 years. I can't describe how meaningful this trip has been so far and how impressed I am with this country.

We are leaving Rwanda early tomorrow for Kampala, Uganda. Happy weekend!
