We are at the hilton in Ethiopia AFRICA!!!! We had a couple of wonderful days in DC. We saw as much as we could in a day and a half. We saw all the big memorials, and especially enjoyed the Holocaust museum. Our flights were smooth, yet crowded. It truly is another world here. So many people on the streets - selling shoeshines, banannas, books on tarps, repairing cars in the street, urinating wherever, diesel fumes, well dressed folks walking next to those with no shoes. There are modern office buildings with mirrored glass next to shanties built of sticks and rusty metal held together with ropes and wire. We had no electricity for several hours yesterday. But the treat was seeing and holding our newest members of my family - Camille and Henry! Camille has chicken pox and Henry is cute as a bug. Camille snuggles up nicely and Henery has the biggest eyes. The food is plentiful and cooked with spices - very good so far. I did see a donut shop today - so I think I could live here... The office people will be at the orphanage tomorrow so we can present them with our 3 suitcases of donations - Thank you all! They really will use them to their fullest. We are all doing great and have met up with 3 other families here and it is comforting to have some fellow "ferenge" - white forigners to hang with.Try and talk to you all laterG9 and Morgan
Pitcures are coming........
