Good bye Rwanda...

Breakfast was good once again. It was a relaxed morning. We checked out at 10:00am and went to the Genocide museum. We learned allot about the tribal tensions between the Hutu's and the Tutsi's back in 1994. After the tour we went to have a beer on a terrace in down town Kigali before heading to the airport. Mutzig is the beer of choice for me. It is crisp yet sweet and refreshing.

The wait at the airport was not long. The shopping at duty free was never before seen... Get this, I picked up a 1L bottle of Stolich's for $6.00 USD...also bought some Ugandan Gin. Look it up if you can its really good. Called Waragi.

We are back in Nairobi traffic and will be in shortly. Its 6:41pm and our trip to Amboselli will be delayed by 1 day. We should leave on Wed am and come back on Friday am.

I hear that the Volcanic ash is playing a muk again. On BBC news this morning, A-Dam airport was closed. The good news is that is should clear by Thursday.
Tomorrow Jasmina should hit the (as Dan calls it) the nick nack paddy wack shops and maybe shoot a round of golf at the Windsor. TBA

Good day all and we'll write soon!
