Hi Eric

I remember that story. I suggest you write it up. As someone once wrote – adventure starts when something goes wrong.

Love this blog!
“But, unfortunately, not to everyone. In such situations, what happens is painful for us, the organizer”.
Have been with your Tour twice and have seen so all too much of this attitude.
Idea: Pick up the right people with the right values for coming adventures.

PS Did the same mistake at the border (with you Henry) of Uganda -Rwanda, I passed the border having the exit stamp but not the the entry stamp (how was it possible?) Later that day in dark night I have to go back, in a taxi, driven by a very young and unexperienced driver, from Kigali to the border. It was an experience I would NOT like to miss:)
