More photos from Ethiopia..... Yesterday I got an email from my brother, Rick,  telling me about some places we could visit and even volunteer at!  I had prayed to find SOMETHING we could do with our time to make a difference here in Addis Ababa, while we are waiting to get settled in Debre Zeyit and there was the answer!

We drove to a Children's Home in Addis (Orphanage) where my brother's friend adopted three children in 2009.  It is run by two Franciscan Sisters from Malta.  We spent almost 3 hours there holding, feeding, and loving 7 of the 9 little babies there, all 4 months old and under. Here are just a couple of photos.... They were all such BEAUTIFUL babies!!

We have had donkeys, sheep and dogs 

grazing in the front yard, but what a 

surprise to find a family of PIGS there 

when we got home yesterday at 

dinnertime!!  EVERYDAY here brings

 NEW surprises! 

I LOVE the fruit stands here.  Most of them look SO
nice and so colorful! Their fruit is usually really good.
(We do wash it in Clorox water before we eat it.) We
found MANDARIN ORANGES today!! Yippee!  : D

We were stopped in traffic and there was this guy
standing WAY up high on ONE little eucalyptus
pole in the scaffolding!! It looked scary to me!

I LOVE Cameroon Street. It has big, colorful
fake palm trees all down the middle that are lit up
at night.  We've only driven there once at night
and I didn't have my phone or camera....

We stopped at a little "mall" on Cameroon St. one
day and I just couldn't resist getting this picture!!
Inside they have "BOB & BONGO'S BITES"!
