Rwanda, the T+L Way

Travel + Leisure jets off to . . . Rwanda?!? True, it's been over a decade since members of the majority Hutu tribe killed an estimated 800,000 Tutsis, and the country has made great strides towards forgiveness or at least some sort of resignation with its past. As the slighty dotty T+L lead-in says, "if the Hutus and Tutsis can coexist, then why not luxury hotels and memorial centers, still-intact genocide sites and wildlife-rich national parks?" But after that cringe-worthy kickoff, the article soon becomes reasonable and non-silly.
