This weekend I was back in Bukavu. We took some time to enjoy Lake Kivu - sitting on the pier, swimming, and kayaking. One of the FH staff members brought an inflatable 2 person kayak back from the States and I got to go out in it. Lake Kivu is on the border between the DRC and Rwanda (knew that) and the FH residence is really close to the border (hadn't fully captured that fact). So we went out about a half hour towards a point that was sticking out into the lake, and Michael told me that now we were in Rwandan water space. You could almost see the bridge that's the border. Pretty cool!
So...I've now paddled to Rwanda!

Wow! Don't you sound adventurous. Back in college, I liked to tell people that I ran to Iowa... being that my school was in the Quad Cities, it wasn't TOO far. But your story is much cooler. :)
