Cyangugu

Cyangugu is a nice little town split in two areas; one up the hill and the other part at the border. We found Hotel du Lac next to the border, from our hotel room we had a good view on the border bridge. We sat a while to watch life going by and take some photos.



View from our room.

After 18.oo the border closes and the streets get rather empty at the border part of town. The other part remains busy with many people walking on the street.

It was sad to see some houses, which could have been nice, were left to rot.



The next day and night we spent at the Peace Hotel. A lovely place with a view over the lake. Luckily we were prepared for the place this doesn't serve alcohol, we had our own little supply.



As the drive back was over the same road, I hope I don't need to explain there were some potholes.
