Day 9 Just a few more things before we leave

Today is Day 9. We will go to the airport at 7:00 tonight. We will be on the plane at 10:30. We woke uip this morning knowing we will not go to bed till Sunday night. Yikes! 
This morning we did a little more shopping. We had to spend our birr before we leave. We picked up some great souvenoirs. Now we are relaxing by the pool mentally preparing for our exhausting trip home. We have 2 hours before we leave to go back to the hotel to get our luggage and finishing packing.
 
 
Enjoy the last pictures from Ethiopia. Next post will be from the US. Home Sweet Home!
Lots of Love,
Rick & Mandi & Jakob
Tom & Kathy
 
PS We had a security guard approach us and ask us to take his 6 kids back to the US for education. Anyone interest in Exchange students???

We can't wait to meet Jakob! His cousin Zachary is jumping in anticipation! (actually, he's jumping in the doorway jumper, but the glory of having a 7-month old is that you can "interpret" for them. Hehe!)

I bet in just a short while these boys will be running around together in the yard, hitting things with sticks! Hopefully not each other, though. Much love!
