What a thrill it was to celebrate my 50th birthday in the incredible country of #Rwanda. 🇷🇼✨
 One of the absolute highlights was visiting volcanoesnationalpark and trekking up into the stunning #VirungaMountains to spend time with the awe-inspiring #MountainGorilla — a species that can only be found in this part of the world.
I was blown away by how peaceful, intelligent, and welcoming they were. As we stood among them — walking beside them, filming them, watching them — they knew we were there. And yet they remained calm, composed, and almost curious. It was a moment of pure connection with nature that I’ll never forget.  If you’ve never been to Rwanda, put this trip at the top of your list. It’s a country full of warmth, resilience, and natural wonders.
Thank you to:
thebal visitrwanda_now thepinnaclekigali — you made my 50th birthday an experience of a lifetime.
And thank you to everyone around the world who sent love and birthday wishes. I felt it all. 
Here’s to being #50YearsYoung and embracing every new adventure that lies ahead. rayray_jr3 _wynnallen_ wystanallen34 screaming22 michael.j.rose not pictured shannonwalkerallen _walkerallen4
