Good News - EIA!

Sarah and I set off for Kigali this morning - she was leaving in the afternoon :( Anyway, we went to the craft shop at the KBC (Kigali Business Centre) that has very reasonably priced traditional art and crafts. Objective: buy two woven trunks. Result: success! We had a look around at some of the other things but decided that we should go to Butare in the near future where a lot of these art and crafts originate. After a nice lunch at Hotel des Mille Collines (Hotel Rwanda), Sarah set off back to the UK.

I had a meeting with the consultant who is doing our EIA (environmental impact assessement) for Ikoro. We went through the report and at end realised that we were pretty much ready to submit the document to REMA for perusal and hopefully approval. The date was set for Thursday this week - very exciting now, we're reaching another milestone toward commencing with construction.

After the meeting I set off for Musanze having a not so good drive through driving rain, some fog and some bad drivers. My nerves were a little in tatters at the end but go there safely.
