Salsa

You may be as surprised as I was, but there is a serious salsa culture here in Kigali. I went with a group of my housemates to a salsa "club" last night (where we were the only non-Rwandans for quite a while) and danced the night away.  

It ended up being a huge crowd, with quite a few muzungus ("foreigners" to Rwandans... actually I'm told it's in the Swahili language) as well.  I was a little hesitant to get out there, but was dragged out there by someone who turned out to be an amazing salsa dancer. All in all, it was a blast. 

I had some pictures, but somehow lost them. But that's ok, because I looked pretty miserable trying to dance in Rwanda... ha! We apparently go every Thursday, it's the thing to do here, so I'll get some in the future.

All is well. I'm a little worn out, but it's been a good time and things are coming along well on our initiative. Blessings to all!
