American Embassy

Yesterday am Gary Morgan and three other couples set out to do their final paperwork at the American Embassy. It is the rainy season in Addis Ababa so it was yes raining when they arrived. As soon as the van door opened a whole bunch of little street boys popped up with umbrellas to keep everyone dry. So Morgan was handing out money to them while another lady was handing out snacks. I cannot wait for Gary to get home and post about some of what they are seeing it is so hard to even believe.

So at the Embassy a nice English speaking man did clear up the extra fee misunderstanding for Gary. He did have to pay the fee because they are non-related siblings. Gary was overly prepared in the area of paperwork and did not need many of the notarized documents he had. Paperwork wise it all went very smoothly so Gary's trip to the Embassy was both positive and satisfying.
Morgan on the other hand will not remember the Embassy so fondly. As they got into the Embassy Camille oh beautiful Camille decided to unload.. yes she puked then blew out some of that fine water poo I have herd so much about. So there was Morgan cleaning it all up while Gary was in doing paperwork. Bless her heart. I am praying that Camille was just a bit car sick.. Oh please Lord.
Out of the four couples there Gary and Morgan were the only ones that sent their children back to the Orphanage. I am sure Morgan felt bad but Gary says Henry was not eating for them. Gary also says it is very noisey so it is hard to get much sleep at night.
So prayers for firm poo, no vomiting and for Henry to eat.
Have a wonderful day... If all goes well they will be back on Saturday.. I can't wait.
