It was very sad saying goodbye to my friends but I am glad to be staying in Rwanda for a while longer with the prospect of seeing them all again.
Before leaving, I held a small party at my house and invited my closest friends. We ate goat brochettes and ibitoke and drank lots of Fanta. I then packed all of my stuff up into a small driving school car with dual controls (taxis are not easy to come by in Kibungo!) and I left for Kigali. After the stress of moving and saying goodbye, I was very grateful to spend the following week in Tanzania, with friends, having a relaxing holiday....photos to follow.

| Not such a sad goodbye to this spider - thankfully the only day we ever met was my last day in Kibungo! |
| Goodbye Safari - my very cautious moto driver who never let me fall off! |
| Goodbye Mama Blair- my washing lady who cleaned my clothes and my house (sometimes a bit too thoroughly!) |
| Goodbye Jean de Dieu - Headteacher at Kansana, the school that gave my parents such a wonderful welcome. |
| Goodbye Judith - My DEO, boss and friend. |
