  • Day 824: On the second day in Rwanda, Martin and I are heading for the Congo-Nile Trail. A hiking trail that runs along the eastern shores of Lake Kivu - one of Africa’s great lakes.
    We were not sure what we were getting ourselves into, but we knew that the first 79 km’s were doable on a motorcycle. It had been raining all morning - and the weather forecast didn’t look too good, but we had ea7ch other, should we get into trouble, so we threw ourselves into one of the most remote, beautiful and tough rides on my entire journey!
    Martin is the guy who loves coriander - you find him here: Overlander_No_Coriande

    I cannot explain the bouncing letters, but I will see if I can fix it.

    First of all your pronunciation of the Kinyarwanda names of the towns is Top-notch👌🏾.
    The abandoned town you passed through was not affected by war; there hasn't been any war or conflict in Rwanda for the past 30 years. The houses have been washed away due to heavy rainfall and landslides that are so common in those hilly areas, especially in the rainy season.

      Yes, I feel my impression of the place doesnt quite do it justice. Good reason to go back.
      I wish, we would have stopped, had a break. Agreed with one person to help us, and we could have tipped him. The way it happened it got stressful and felt like we needed to get out of there. For sure just an emotion.

    These parts being so scary only looks incomprehensible to the people with longer legs. I totally get what worried you there. And that one bridge that consisted more of air than planks? Two tall Teutons and a GS, and it would have ended in the river! 😵‍💫
