    Going home at last

    February 15, 2018 in Rwanda ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C

    Alarm went off at 1:00am as planned, had a shower, packed all my stuff and ensured nothing was left behind. At 2:00am went down to the lobby to request for the airport drop off I had booked only to be told that the hotel vehicle has already gone to the airport but they would get me one of the car hires packed by the reception. The car hire expected me to pay the $30 I had agreed with the hotel but I refused and told him I can get Uber for Tsh 11,000 as such if he agrees $20 we can go. He said he had to check with the receptionist and went off to talk to him. I hailed an uber instead and got down from the car and when he came back I told him an Uber was coming for me but if he agrees to my $20 which I would pay in local currency I can cancel the Uber. The sharp guy agreed so I cancelled Uber and he took me to the airport where I paid Tsh 40,000.

    Check in was quick, flight left on schedule arriving Kigali earlier than expected.
