This morning we went to church in the Kigeme Parish.  So many familiar faces!  Lots of friends.
It was a really nice service, and when the Pastor introduced us, he really outlined the projects we are involved in here.  We were pleased as it's hard to get that information out here!

In the afternoon we went with our friends; Assinapol - APAP Paravet, Felicien-  our newly graduated Vet and our friend Origene to visit a couple APAP farms.  We walked a little over an hour up and down a few of Rwanda's 1000 hills viewing some wonderful scenery along the way. We visited two APAP farms in that time! It puts things into perspective as it indicates how far the farmers must travel to get to town and how far the vet and paravet must travel to visit the cows!! It is a different way of life here and I think that all the Canadian team got a glimpse of that way of life today.

Are these cows? No, they are a bunch of football fans going to the game! Want a ride?
