The end of April was a busy time for our visitors, who arrived in April: Carol Falke, from State College, Pennsylvania, USA, and Marilyn and Ward Yorks from Williamsport, Pennsylvania, USA. Carol and Marilyn are members of the International Board of Hope Made Real. Ward is a retired teacher.
They made a visit to a local village, and a driving tour of Muhanga town and the super highways (tongue in cheek) in rural Muhanga.
Our HR person Juliette greeted them at the gate to her home.
Juliette entertained Carol (left), Marilyn and Ward at her home and in her village. Fanta and peanuts were a treat.

Carol is a hiker. On one of her hikes, she visited the water source at the bottom of the mountain.
Forest Hills Rotary in the United States, Kigali Virunga Rotary in Rwanda, and Rotary International made this water source possible.
The vehicle of the tour group Let's Go There Africa was the transportation to Akagera National Park and a big animal safari.
Too close for comfort. Wow!
On his last day, the little boy in Ward wanted to sit on a moto bike and dream of younger days. Motos are our main source of local transportation. Wish granted.
Marilyn and Ward, who visited for nearly two weeks, and Carol, who stayed a few days longer, got ready for their journey back to the USA. We bid them a fond farewell.
