Yesterday we took a two hour trip to Kibungo where Mitch and I will work with UNATEK (the university we are partnering with on this AUCC Students For Development project).
We had the opportunity to see the home we'll live in during our time and arranged to have some necessary additions coordinated (beds, pots, pans, plates and the like). Lama Mugabo is our link and representative of Building Bridges with Rwanda. He and I are quite excited to see about developing a small garden in the front yard.
We are clearly the new kids in town and this aspect is impossible to capture via photos without being all the more obvious. We determined that with time, we'd be more familiar and therefore less intrusive with our Nikons. Gathering a following can only be compared with being a celebrity, I suppose. Something I wish wasn't the case.
We returned to Kigali that evening and will remain here until our conference on socio-economic development is finished on Wednesday.

Kara,
I read the past two blog entries to Jen and Mum as they sat in Oliveland drinking their coffee. They then looked at your pictures and we enjoyed them. I have questions but they are not important, in the end all things work out. Looks like the quote in your bathroom by Mae West will take a new turn. We are all rooting for you. Love, Dad
