A snapshot of a Kisoro village showing the home (in the middle of the pic) where Richard Manirinde, one of our children, stays with his mother and siblings. It shows the sprawling gardens typical of most villages in Kisoro. The gardens presently contain maize and Irish potatoes. The potatoes are due for harvest but the maize will be harvested in January 2015. Near Richards home is the garden that his mother cultivates. This typifies how strongly the communities rely on agriculture for their livelihood. In the far background are the Virunga ranges which house Mgahinga forest National park. The park is home to the world-famous mountain gorillas. Tourists come from all over the world to see the gorillas.The ranges stretch into Rwanda and D.R Congo on the other side of the mountains.
