This afternoon is a quiet afternoon around the guest house as we pack up and prepare to leave. This morning we had an Ethiopian cooking lesson where we learned how to make shiro wot and a bunch of other dishes. Joshua even got to try his hand at making injera. We then followed lunch up with a coffee ceremony. Its an amazing time of roasting coffee beans over charcoal, grinding the beans and serving them fresh. It is a relaxing, community building time which is a great honor to be part of.
We are all packed up and leave for the airport in a couple of hours and then our 17 hour journey back to The States begins. We'll be back in DC by 8 am and then pass through immigration, etc.
Please be praying for one of the little children in our travel group who has gotten quite sick.
Catch up with you all Stateside soon!
By the way...Hanna is doing amazingly well. She is definitely part of the family!
