Breaking the fast

This is how our last week-end in Kigali felt. It is now 6 weeks since we ventured out from beyond the forest and we have had virtually no ex-pat company in that time.
The week-end was luxurious in that regard - meeting some new people, hillwalking in the mist and rain with Scottish friends and collecting another friend from the airport to bring him to Cyangugu for 10 days. In all this, it is the chat that is important, both the serious and light-hearted. While we are here in Cyangugu we don't often "miss" people from our own culture, but when we get quality time with friends, it is just wonderful.
