South Province...the final visit

I must apologise to those who have been following this blog. It's been almost three weeks since the last entry and almost a month since I left Rwanda. The busyness upon my return to Canada and currently a vacation with Cathy in Texas has slowed down the postings. There will be nine postings in a row which will conclude my Rwandan experience.












On March 26 we set out for South Province for my final provincial visit. Again as we travelled high into the mountains surrounding Kigali, the well paved road ran along the mountain top allowing sights of scenic valleys and mountain sides.
As usual many people are walking and riding bicycles along these roads carrying various loads.
































We stopped at a research centre where artificial inseminators were taking a refresher course in animal breeding. They were using native Ankole cattle. These animals were not necessarily 'in heat', which frustrated some of the technicians in finding the cervix and ultimately the uterus for semen deposit.
I was encouraged however that efforts are made to keep these technicians current with the latest technologies.
