Yohanna had a tearful night up three times. Went through her clothing once. After I got up I took her down stairs so G could sleep a bit more. Bill got up and worked on downloading photos. They had pancakes for breakfast. I had a poptart of course. Gretta was off to see another priest. Fredrico was on the computer. The Americans were playing with their kids.
Mahi doesn't have a drivers licence. Actually most people here don't. It cost a lot for the class, and you go for about a week and of course the cost of a vehicle. That's why there is so much public taxi/van/busses.
We went to Bethany. On the way we passed a fence that had broken glass stuck in the top instead of barbed wire or electric fencing.
We got to Bethany in a bus that held 18 adults and 2 babies. Some of them had not their gotcha day yet, it was coming today. (That's when they get their children) 3 families had biological children with them. One college age daughter and 2 young boys. Everyone filed into the office and they offered water and popcorn, plain popcorn, like air popped. They started filling out paper work.
Too many people in the room I didn't feel very good so I went outside. After paperwork was finished each individual family met with the social worker, nurse, etc. and told them more about your child health, etc.
I visited with our lawyer. We talked about the snow in DC. He has a nephew who lives in Columbus.
There were beautiful rose bouquets in the office, 4 dozen roses in one bouquet. Before Valentine's day each rose cost 1 birr after V Day 5 birr. These were grown on the grounds.
G and B paid $400 for her visa and they went through questions that might be asked at the Embassy Appointment. Tomorrow we will to to the Embassy at 2:00 after lunch at the Blue Top at 11:30. They told us to leave everything at the guest house or in the bus. There are 2 check points, no cameras or electronics. It will take a long time, there will be many people there. Be prepared to be hot and uncomfortable.
Do kids go home for lunch or take lunch to school? They only go 1/2 days to school then home for lunch.
How long does it take to build a hotel? LONG TIME
