So I got an email today from our group leader that our build location had been changed. On the positive side...its only a 2 hour bus drive from Addis Abbaba instead of a 10 hour one. On the negative...its the coldest city in Ethiopia. Anyone who knows me knows that that is is big negative. The temperatures seem to be from 5 - 15 Celsius. I realize that is nothing compared to what it will be here, but there is no central heating anywhere in Ethiopia and I have no Jody to warm my feet at night. I'll just keep trying to stay positive on that one.
We are going to be in Ethiopia for their biggest religious celebration, Timkat on January 19. I am doing research now to find out about it. I know so far that it is a celebration of the Baptism of Christ. Will keep you in the loop...
