Greetings from Goma!

We arrived here yesterday following a 3 hour drive from the Rwandan capital of Kigali. Rwanda is breathtakingly beautiful. Lush green valleys were the landscape we viewed on our road trip to the Congo border. I didn't manage to get any sleep throughout the journey from London so yesterday was exhausting but exciting nonetheless.
We are in the company of our guide and interpreter, Haitian and a local of Goma, Rita. They are fantastic help to us and Rita also works for immigration and so kindly arranged for our permit and visas into the Congo.
The battery on the laptop I'm borrowing is about to run out so I'll have to sign off ...!
