Hi all,
This is Abel and Schneck writing the blog so don’t expect
anything special (Sorry Mom and Dad-Nick). Today, we come to you from our new
location based in Rwanda. This morning was a very special morning indeed. For
it was the only morning so far where we have been able to sleep in. The guys
didn’t get much sleep though for there was a spider the size of an African
grapefruit at full blossom in our room. An adventurous few decided that they wanted
to go to service with the amazing people from Sonrise. (see other blog entry about this) Those
who where even more adventurous stayed at the beautiful, Best View Hotel
admiring the “Best View”. Tehe see what I did there? The even MORE adventurous
decided to take a trek into the unknown land of the Market with our guide, the
one and only Joel. From this experience, Joel taught us a number of life
skills. Among those, were the skills to travel next to cars which are going at
about 870 joules per hour. For those that didn’t take middle school science,
that’s means really, really, tasty. By the way, thanks to our homie Evan
Doherty for creating an opportunity to go to a “get together” with the Rwandan
Cycling team. While we were there, we all felt like we were a dope (badum-ching). As the sun
passed what we call 12 o’clock, we traveled to through a long, bumpy,
strenuous, road that led us to the Imbabazi orphanage. Here we learned about
the life of Rosemond Carr, a woman born and raised in The United States of
America, only the greatest country in the world, but decided to base her life in Rwanda and
help out the community based on their needs at the time. Here we learned the
history of Carr and we walked around the property which she owned where we saw
beautiful gardens like no other ones that we've ever seen before. We then headed
back to the hotel with “The Best View” in Rwanda and finished the day off and
we rested for the next beautiful day. I now sit here two days after writing
this blog looking, at THE “Best View.”
Tehe
