What a great last day! Because our flight is a late one, we were able to hang around and pack in a no-panic state! As well throughout the day we had a number of our friends come by to visit!! It is the hardest part of the trip - leaving all our Rwandan family!!
We had a fantastic visit with 'our boys'! They stayed and chatted for almost an hour! We had five of them: Chretien, the young man Rachael supports in school, Joseph, the young man Carolyn supports, Dominique another young man in the program - these three are all in their last year of secondary, needless to say, we are feeling old!! We chatted a great deal about the future, they have big plans, but first of all, want to finish school with great results, so they will be studying over this two week holiday! We also had Jehovah, hoping to get back to school and Bosco, working towards his drivers license and building himself a house!! Lots of fun!! When they went to go, Chretian and Joseph gave us each a nice gold chain- they ceremoniously put it around our necks!! Very touching!
We had our last lunch at our little home - Josephine has spoiled us!! Great food!!
Then we met with a group of five students who finished their secondary education last November. They have been waiting for the results of the National exam, and to find out whether they were accepted into a post secondary program! They were!!!
Then it was time for final good bye's and the long trek to the Kigali airport!! Actually- we have a rule- we only say 'See you soon!'
Now we are sitting in the Kigali airport waiting for our flight!! A very nice airport!!
