We are doing good. Patrick had been sick again for about half a day...nothing major. We have all been realy good health wise.
We are having a good time. We have been out to the country side for 2 day trips. One on Saterday and one today.
Saterday we went to the Portugese Bridge. A beautiful drive and a beautiful place. There is a gorge there. Today we went to what they keep calling hot springs, but it a pool with clean spring water. It is warm water. It was very nice. We went with a few other people. There was 8 white bodies(really white) in a pool full of Ethiopians. They had quite a show.
The Ethiopians had a great time, it was a school trip and most of them do not know how to swim. So they all stood in the shallow end of the pool.
That was quite a trip for them to go there. They also have an olympic size pool there but it was empty for a cleaning. The water was almost like bath water, so warm.
We also fed the monkeys bananas. They come and take them right out of your hand and eat them.
On the ride there we saw camels and hyenas.
We gave away soccer balls during these trips. Wow...the smile that puts on their faces. Everyone here loves soccer (football). We stopped along the road and got out and started to play with 3 kids. They thought it was great. And then they got to keep the ball. They were so greatful.
We were all wondering what they would tell their parents when they took it home.
We have had some amazing experiences happen here (good things and sad things).
But tomorrow we will try to do one more short trip and then pack and get ready to fly out at 1:20am.
I will post some pictures. I will post some video when Iget home. It does not work from here.
We thank God each day that we are healthy and that we can experience this country.
It has been really great.
We will see you when we get home.
Dear Family, for some reason we can not view your pictures on here, but maybe we dont have the right program for it...So its almost time to pack again, time sure flies eh?! Wishing you guys a safe trip home. God bless, Rennie
