We work better together

Day 1 - February 17, 2024

Well, we finally made it. It was a long 48 hours: small plane seats – 8 seats across – 60+ rows of people, screaming babies, and time changes. We were greeted with great smiles even at 9 p.m. Rwanda time as soon as we walked off the plane onto the runway. Little lights surrounded us. The runway was on
top of the highest hill. It looked as if we were looking down on stars.

After getting through customs, we loaded down 3 cars with 25+ bags. Our drivers stuffed bags in every available inch including the roof! After traveling over 10,000 miles we couldn’t bear the idea of the bags flying off the roof as we drove to the hotel. (None did.) We were warned in our prep meetings about the busy roads, but still couldn’t believe it when I saw it with my own eyes. Cars stacked next to each other, coming from every direction. Then every available 3 feet between cars became a makeshift motorcycle lane. Motorcycles whizzed by and before you knew it, 3 more passed.

Rwanda is known as “the land of 1000 hills.” It’s true. Every turn is either straight up or down. Imagine driving in the dark with people walking everywhere. After arriving safely at the hotel, we found our rooms and grabbed a bite to eat around the corner and went to bed.
