Finally, visa for Rwanda
I finally got my visa for Rwanda, although there was a few bump on the road. So now I have all my visas. I have all the things I need and maybe a bit more. All is left to do is pack!

New kirundi words and expressions
I found a pad where I wrote some interesting expressions last year and the year before that. I also have been adding some word over the last weeks. Kirundi
EDIT : I added some words in Swahili

Vaccines!
Got my vaccines today! Meningitis, Yellow Fever, Polio-Tetanos-Diphteria and Hepatitis A. What's left now, is to take orally the one against Typhoid Fever. I didn't have to take the one against Hepatitis B because it is good for life and I found the proof that I already got it. I also have a prescription for Malarone, a medicine against malaria.
The cost of the vaccines... 440$! Fortunately, I have an insurance that will cover all the cost.

Vaccines appointment
Got my appointment to get the vaccines on July 18th. I saw on internet that I need to get those at least 10 days before departure, so I am fine. The problem is that I need an attestation that I have enough antibodies to not get the vaccine against Hepatitis B... So now I got to go to my doctor and pay to get the attestation so I don't have to pay for the vaccine... Aaaarrrrg!
EDIT: I received a call, my appointment has been moved to July 6th, the doctor won't be at work on the 18th.

Itinerary
I finally have the dates I'll be in Rwanda : August 19th until 23rd.
It looks like it is cheaper when the visa is applied for by internet - 60 USD versus 100 USD. Oh, and the entry point from Burundi to Rwanda when travelling by bus is Kanyaru Haut.
