photos from ethiopia







When words fail, pictures will have to suffice.  Needless to say, we made is safely to Ethiopia.
The Four - well, there is a large language barrier, but things are going well.
We'll be home in time for Christmas.

  2. aww..that is so awesome. 2 nights ago, I got to hang out with a bunch of kids from Ethiopia that are in a singing choir, that goes on tour. I totally understand the language barrier, :) when they first came, they hardly knew any English...t'was a bit difficult. :)
    Merry Christmas!!
