It's the day before we leave for Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, via Amsterdam, so we are flinging summer clothes around, digging out suitcases, searching for computer cords and batteries and adapters.  My computer tells me the current temperature there is 79 degrees. We board tomorrow, Wed., Jan. 18 at 3:30 pm, arrive in Amsterdam in the early morning of the 19th, wait a few hours for the southern flight to Addis, and arrive in Addis, God willing, in the early evening. We will be met by a couple of wonderful gentlemem from the Makanu Yesus seminary. What an adventure.

I hope to keep a sort of journal of our adventures via this blog. We understand that the internet is a bit spotty, so may not be able to post all of the time, but I'll keep it up as best I can.  The photos below show us in the context we are leaving--you'll see us somewhere else next time!

Think of us and pray for us. I am sure in this 30 days we'll experience lots of adventures to report!
