Our first day in Rwanda is hard to put into words. Adjectives that come to mind are amazing, shocking, surprising, inspiring, gorgeous, etc. This photo shows a man walking his bike laden with goods up a very steep hill. Hundreds of people were walking or riding bikes along this main road connecting Kigali with outlying villages, many with heavy burdens on their heads or bikes, including children. In spite of their difficult lives, the people of Rwanda are quick with a smile and a wave. The weather was perfect with just a quick 10 minute downpour in the afternoon.
