Kate got back from Butare in the early afternoon today, about the same time Allan and Solange left to go there. Kate told us she forgot her camera at a restaurant and hasn’t seen it since—despite going back to look for it and having the manager call and question all the waitresses who were working the night it was left behind.
Basically it’s gone.
Luckily, Allan came to her rescue with the suggestion that she temporarily use one of the compact digital cameras he brought from Canada (donated by Concordia University for the university in Butare). They only take two megapixel shots, but that is certainly good enough for taking photos to post on the web.
Kate and I celebrated by taking photos around our yard and neighbourhood. It was also a special occasion because for once clouds did not mar the sunset. It’s actually rare to see a clear sunset from our balcony, despite the fact that the sun always sets behind the hill that our balcony faces.
We then went for a walk down the road and came across many excitable kids. They had their picture taken by Kate several times. I then snapped a couple shots of my own.
