Day 3 - Sunday Hippos, Van Ride back, Happy Easter

We woke early this morning and had breakfast at another hotel. They had pancakes w/syrup. Yum! Then we went for a boat ride to see the hippos. They were pretty cool. The boat ride was fun too. Then we jumped in the van to head back to Addis. We stopped along a beach on Langano Lake. We walked on the beach and had some lunch. Then we were in a long ride van ride back. We stopped after a few hours for some soda at Tommy Restaurant & Bar, then finished our last leg of the trip. It felt good to be back in our hotel. I was nicely greeted with clean laundry on the bed that I had left on the floor. I just put another pile on the floor, hoping tomorrow we will come back and have clean laundry. None of us really feel like sitting right now; but are heading to dinner in a little while. We plan to meet with Alemu again tonight. He is going to go through all of our donations with us and let us know who we should give them to tomorrow.

In the morning we are headed to a Museum, Lion Zoo and more. Then in the afternoon we get to go get Jakob. There will be lots more pictures to post after tomorrow.

Sorry we had no internet while we were on our 2 day tour. We should be able to post daily now.

Happy Easter Everyone! We miss you and will be home in a week.

Lots of Love,

Rick & Mandi
