Rwanda Genocide Museum

We went to the Rwandan Genocide museum. It details the killing of the Tutsis twelve years ago.

I managed to make it through most of the museum, until I got to the top floor which is dedicated to "the children who were supposed to be our future". It was at the point I came to a photo of an eight year old boy who was murdered by stabbing him through both eyes that I went outside, sat on my heels and cried.

His favourite food: Icecream
His best friend: His mother
Cause of death: Knife through both eyes and machete to the skull
