Le Pays des Mille Collines

Rwanda is beautiful.  It's hilly (hence the title in French of land of a thousand hills). It's green. And the people are very kind.  Rwanda has a nice set of roads, clean streets, and the most beautiful hole-free sidewalks you've ever seen.  We went to the East to Gisenyi and the Capital of Kigali, a little I know, but it left such a good impression as a country to relax after many long African roads.  With the history of the genocide behind it, Kigali feels more like a western city than it's African counterparts and Eva was even able to find all the food her heart desired.
