Yes Rwanda was a real blast! We ended our Gorilla trek by trekking to see the Golden Monkeys of Rwanda, I must say, see the gorillas first as the monkeys are good and put on a real show for you once you arrive but pales in comparison to the gorillas. Even so The Golden Monkeys are only found here in the three volcano's area so it was worth doing. A show by the local kids that I had to join in on and we were pretty Rwanda'ed up.

Waking at 7:00 am I would be on the bike for 30 minutes and then a mile walk on deck with the Cruise Director. Heading back to the room I would bring sleeping Joy a coffee made by Keith and then shower and head to my sit down breakfast with my new friends of the day. It happened this way every day o...
