It is 5:30 in the morning here which is 10:30pm your time currently. We just took our first showers in Ethiopia which really wasn't that bad. The dogs barked all night but I think I slept through it until 4am this morning. We are eating breakfast at 6am and then taking an 8 hour ride to Kombolcha. There is no air but at night it gets cool so we left our sliding door open for air flow. Did you get the pictures I sent. I'm not sure if they went through.
The meal last night was great. We had Indura (flat bread), dura what (spicy chicken sauce), chick pea and cheese something, and ox with peppers and onions. It was all pretty good. It is pretty scary at night by the way, we were at the other mission house that is 2 blocks away from we are and the van had already left so one of our guides/translators walked Derek and I back to where we are staying. The guides are very nice...there is Fikree, Zalalam, and Hibeta (all men) and very nice and informative.
We found out we will get to meet Seada's caregiver and see where she lives, We are very excited to meet her. On the way to Kobolcha we will stop and see the baboons and monkey...oh and we will have to pee outside if we need a bathroom break during the 8 hour drive :(. We are getting ready now and are interested to see what's for breakfast. The lunch yesterday was beef with pasta and onions, carrots and peas, along with some type of bread. It was just okay.
Oh and there are donkey and goats everywhere when we went out last night. pretty funny.
well gotta go and will try again to send some pics.
love you all
Deanna and Derek
