I can't post many pictures from our day yesterday, since most of the pictures include kids from the three orphanages we visited. It was a tough day, seeing so many kids that didn't have a family to go home to every night. I played soccer at the older boys orphanage on their mud field. Yes, it really was a mud field. I fell about 10 minutes in and covered my backside and shoes with "chica" or mud. Word to those traveling during the rainy season... Two pairs of tennis shoes are necessary if your activities will include soccer.
So, for the pictures we can post...
The first is of Addis making his silly sniffing face. Since he now has a sinus infection, it serves other purposes as well as you can see from the picture.
The people at the Hilton have been so great and friendly. The man that opens our door every day LOVES Addis and plays with him every time. Also in the picture is one of the drivers, Solomon.
The silly white people are Travis and Ryan, your fearless in-country coordinators. You will love them. They are great fun.
And, once again, the bath was not his favorite. If you want to hear his cry, put him in the water.

Love the pictures, especially the first one. Lovely use of the nose, but I also love his little toes all spread out. It looks like he's about to grab something with them!
