We started nicely by the beach in Bujumbura.
No need to get a map, is a lake-beach.

Our charming hosts
Going to a village always creates a sensation
surrounded...
Makamba,
the market, on a non-market day, so pretty empty, it usually is chaos
Ndagala, the little tiny fish
Nyanza
Les pieds en eventail!
Canne a sucre, from the scratch!
Une petite Amstel bien bien froide!
Queen of the world?
Close to Nyanza
It is quite impressive to see these beasts eat!
Saga resha,
the new hotel that is been built, pure luxury, a room there was planned to be 600$, yes you read it right!
Rumonge by night,
where we met the rest of the crowd that cycled there
Blue bay
Livingstone and Stanley stone,
look harder, they wrote (with Stanley) their names on it. The story says they met here. If i do go back a little bit more, Livingstone was missing and they send Stanley to look for him, imagine at the time Stanley going around in Africa asking if they had seen a white man, he found him here. An other story says that is in Rumonge where they separated and Stanley went back to the UK, and Liv. kept going and eventually died of Malaria somewhere close or in the Congo.
The view from the stone, I can imagine elephants and all sort of animals accompanying the white men. Then again I do have a lot of imagination!
A week of discoveries and pure fun
