Casino

Two nights ago we went to a club, despite our 5:15am departure on the following day. We headed to KBC which is one of the best bars I’ve ever been to. The bar has several rooms: a techno dance floor, a club dance floor, a pool room, a posh bar area, a chill bar area and another room with couches and tables. At about midnight we decided to walk to Kigali’s only Casino.

I lent Gordon $20 in startup and took out $20 myself; at the casino you bet in US money instead of the Rwandan Franc. Around 1:30 Gordon had fought back from down to $3 to even at $20 and cashed out, around the same time I was up about $6.50. The $0.50 chips in Kigali are useless as they don’t payout in coins so you need to get two so that you can re-bet it, I kept my chip as a souvenir.

We got back to the hotel and prepared to sleep only three hours… this will be a fun morning.
