I am in Rwanda sending some postcards and this is more organized than Liberia (other topic). Here is a picture of the post office in Kigali:

They did have some postcards for sale - all with animals and slightly oversized:

A new rule states that the sender must write his/her name, address and telephone number on the card. Outside the office is a small monument about the genocide 30 years ago remembering the postal workers who lost their lives:

If you have read this far and want an animal card sent from Rwanda, write below and also send me a PM with your address. I have only three cards left. I would like a card from your home in exchange. Only the THREE first can have a card but I still enjoy comments from other people, of course. I will fly to Burundi on Wednesday.

Thank you for the photos and another story about your exotic adventures! :smile:

Years ago I saw a movie about the conflict/genocide. How sad and scary! :pensive:

But the monument in memory of the postal workers is a super idea.

Have a great time, also in Burundi! :smiley:
