I love pictures... taking them and looking at them. Love it! It isn't uncommon for me to finish some big event or trip and to look back at the pictures with a hint of disappointment. Sometimes even great pictures cannot reflect the intensityor true emotion. The real experience is always better than the moment in time captured in the photo. But I still love the photos!
My experience in Rwanda was amazing. Amazing. Honestly I haven't looked through all of my pictures very closely yet. I'm still just reflecting on the memories. I took hundreds of pictures and I know that they will be special to me in years to come. Right now, I don't need them to remember the intensity of the experience or the feelings I had while there.
So here are a few so that you can see some things that I saw...
The view of Kigali from the balcony where we stayed.
All the signs for Masaka, the village that we worked in. The ride from Kigali to Masaka was always an adventure... bumpy roads and overcrowded cars!
Everywhere you look, even in the city of Kigali, you often see people collecting water. It's a reality that most of us cannot even imagine.
