The People of Rwanda

Youngsters carrying loads along Lake Kiva. 

Young girl Lake Kivo shore of Lake Kivo.

This woman laughed when I said hello in Kinyarwandan, the native language.

This child carries water uphill in 2 jugs weighing almost 17 pounds.

More water requires a bike. This is a water delivery service requiring more than 1 trip. 

Bananas, a staple of the Rwandan diet.

Firewood or building material.

Typical scene found driving across Rwanda. 

The heaviest load we saw. These bags were full of bricks made of clay.
