We made it1

We are here in Ethiopia after a long flight.  Traveling for that long is definitely a challenge.  Rich enjoyed his Italian meal we ate after refueling in Rome.  Another woman from our agency and her friendwere also on our flight. We arrived at night, made it through immigration and customs rather quickly and headed to our hotel.  Had a good nights sleep, reorganized the luggage and had injera for lunch.  We are staying at a guest house that serves primarily adoptive parents so it has been a great learning experience being with the other parents.  We are off for a tour of the city with Aki this afternoon.  We will attempt to keep updating during our stay.  The power usually goes out each evening.  Last night it was just as we started to go to our room and get ready for bed.  Made finding the flashlights a challenge!  Internet connection is also "variable" so we'll try!
