Unwinding on the weekend

After a long day at work on Friday we went out and enjoyed the evening in Kigali. I met up with Morgan who is helping to implement the Peace Corps in Rwanda; John one of the Marines; and my friend Patrick from here in Rwanda. We had a great time at the Hotel Milles Collines where Morgan's good friend (a Rwandese "pop star") was performing.

Today was another beautiful, sunny day and I sat by the pool chatting with other hotel guests from Egypt, Germany, and other interesting places. Some of the hot topics included the upcoming soccer match between Germany and Spain, the election situation in Zimbabwe, and the US presidential candidates (mostly because I was reading one of Obama's books).

Tonight I am off to celebrate Noni's birthday at the yummy Indian Khazana restaurant.
