Ready to Go




How many times in the last year have I written or said that? We're ready to
go! It is hard to believe that for the forseeable future, this will be the
last time I say that. So off we go...we've packed up our apartment here in
Addis Ababa, we've finished language school, we've said good-bye to friends,
and now we're ready to make the move to Omo. What awaits us we've been
dreaming about and planning for these last four years, but still we can't
quite imagine what it will be like to put our feet on that ground and say
"We're here to stay."

We'll spend the next two days on the road. It's 900 kilometers from Addis to
Omo, so we'll go the first day to a town called Arba Minch and stay in a
guesthouse there. The second day we'll travel the rest of the way and should
arrive at the Omo River mid-afternoon.

Please pray for safe travels and calm kids. Two days is a long time to be
strapped in a car seat!

We're ready to go...
