My visit with Christophe 1

When I first arrived in Rwanda, I noticed how lush and green it was. It is called "The Land of a Thousand Hills." I felt save because Rwanda has one of the lowest crime rates in Africa. I also feel I little bit more comfortable because one their official languages is English some of there other languages include French, Kinyarwanda, and Kiswahili. It is a very small country, yet it is extremely beautiful. Some of the animals in Rwanda are really amazing such as the Shoebill Baleniceps rex. It is a rare bird that lives mostly by the river. One of the unique features of the bird is it has a very large and thick bill.

Transportation

I am going to Rwanda (It doesn't say where he lives in Rwanda) I am going to get there by car... just kidding; I'm going by plane. I am flying out of LAX to KGL in Kigali, Rwanda. It will cost me $2127.04 USD (Thats's the price for a round trip) I will be making two stops on the way: Washington DC then to Brussels, Belgium then finally to Kigali, Rwanda. I am flying on Lufthansa German Airlines

And finally a song that I like to listen to when I'm flying and I look out the window at the clouds.
The song is Gina by Mr. Fijiwiji. (funny name isn't it)
