We have 5 more people who will let us know next week.
Accommodation will be for most people a 3 bedroom apartment where each of you will get your own bedroom and bath, but will share livingroom and small kitchen. For couples, and by request, a few of you will have your own studio. This is subject to change based on availability.
.
As a reminder, check your passport. It must have at least 6 months of validation from the date we travel. Also don't forget to get your shots and malaria pills.
On Thursday August 8th at 6;30pm, we will meet at Rene's Restaurant at 7050 Winkler Rd, Fort Myers FL 33919 for an orientation about the trip. This meeting is very important, so please try to make it. Spouses are welcome to come and hear about the trip as well. Appetizers will be provided and there will be a cash bar available.
We have received a wish list from the school in Kigali, as listed below. If you have extra room in your suitcase and would like to bring some items from this list, they would appreciate it. In the past we have brought 2 suitcases, one with our personal belongings and one filled with items for the school, which is left at the school. Please bear in mind, sometimes we get charged for the second suitcase from Ft Myers to Washington DC. Last time the charge was $50 for the second bag. They do not charge from Washington DC to Kigali. The maximum weight per suitcase is 50 pounds.
