Rwanda Round Two

I'm back again from Rwanda. We went for a consultation of Quaker Peace Network, basically a conference for quaker organizations working in Africa. It was a lot of fun other than the exhaution from being the one taking notes during all the sessions, i've now got 98 pages of text to sort through!

The best part other than the interesting people I met was the place the conference was at. It was in Kibuye, Rwanda (for those of you in the family with the big world atlas you can find it on the map) which is on Lake Kivu. It is absolutely beautiful there and you can see the volcano in Goma in the distance. Jessica, one of the people at the conference from the Quaker UN office in New York named it Mordor because at night it glows red.
