It’s been a sobering day learning about the genocide that happened in this beautiful country. We walked the memorial graves in silence, praying & remembering. I recall my beloved Mom explaining to me while we lived in Malaysia in 1994 about the massacre that was happening in Rwanda. Being here today is sobering. Our next stop is, Burundi, the poorest country in the world. Grateful for @antiquesafari for coordinating this life-changing East Africa Pilgrimage.
