Day 4 Bujumbura to Matana

An early start and then off. Through Bujumbura and then up and up - for 4 hours!
85km and 2100m of climbing. Through some great scenery and some lovely winding declines. Roads generally good and tarmaced but also some unexpected potholes! We had lots of local children cheering us on and sometimes running up the hills with us!

Now we’re staying in Matana at a hotel which is functional and now we’re at a different hotel to get internet as there is none at ours!

Met the bishop who Simon has known for many years who served us African tea and Mandazi. He told us how touch things are with 90% unemployment, no fuel, little food and expensive medical care but he carries on regardless. then dinner before a good night sleep before we go again tomorrow!

For all the animals of the forest are mine, and I own the cattle on a thousand hills. Psalm 50:10Meer informatie
