Taking it all in

Yesterday was full in our attempt to learn as much as possible about the culture and history of Ethiopia. We have another full day today so I'll sum it all up in a few words.

Orthodox church where Haile Selassie was crowned. Coffee break. Shopping/Bargaining. National Museum, 'Lucy'. Tej (Ethiopian honey wine). Cigar by the pool. In bed 7pm and awake at 12am, still suffering from jet lag. Our massages should be great today!

Tonight is the night we arrive at the guest house and meet Semenesh in the am!

  4. So happy you get to 'know' more of Ethiopia before you meet your sweet girl. I would love to hear more later, after you adjust and are home, again with your daughter. Thanks for sharing....and praying for you both. Hope the plane there was ok, and I"m sure now the way home will be easier with a wonderful person in your arms.
