I am here!

As you have guessed it I am here in Rwanda! I arrived yesterday around 2 pm Rwanda time (8 am your time). It was a very long journey and I was so wiped. Ndash met me at the airport and we went right to our motel. It's a really super place, with a supermarket on the premises and sinks in the rooms. The public restroom has really hot showers, which is quite nice. Ndash and I didn't do much last nite other than eat dinner and watch a movie. Today we will start our busy schedule of meetings and such.

There were two bombings here Saturday nite and one person died. With the elections coming up in August, people who dislike the current president (who will most likely win another term) are protesting. There is still a safe feeling here and I am not worried. I will certainly practice discretion in where I go.
