We have arrived after 30+ hours of traveling (which is super exhausting), stops in Detroit, Amsterdam, an unexpected stop in Khartoum, Sudan (just to refuel and drop off some people) and finally Addis Ababa, Ethiopia!
We slept for over 12 hours last night after arriving at our amazing guest house. The guest house has been such a huge blessing and we have an amazing hostess who gave us Ethiopian coffee, toast, and omelettes when we woke up.
As usual, traveling in a new country is such an adventure. We have spent the morning sitting on our balcony, eating chick peas from the neighbor boy, and taking much needed showers. Tomorrow morning (Monday) we meet Trey and Tessa. There are five other families here with Bethany this week and we will meet them tomorrow too. We are eight hours ahead of Michigan time so it is currently Sunday afternoon here. We can't wait to see you all in a week!
