Charlotte and I made the 10 hour trek to Lake Bunyonyi near the Rwandan border for Christmas. The trip there was quite something. A trip that should only take three hours or so tripled due to the huge crater sized potholes scattered throughout the road making driving somewhat like a video game as we tried to dodge the potholes as well as oncoming traffic. Needless to say there were several vehicles that became casualties of the road including ours. The place that we broke down seemed to be particularly popular as a small bus broke down right behind us as we were waiting for our driver to come back from town with the radiator that he had pulled out of the car with a pair of pliers. Bunyonyi was certainly a beautiful and peaceful place to get some rest once we got there. After doing quite a bit of hiking at Sipi Falls the week before we pretty much just chilled out and read our books, ate some good food, and went canoing in a one piece canoe that was a log that had been hollowed out. It was much different to navigate then our canoes at home, but I eventually got the hang of it.
