Travel Updates
We’re a little more than 38 hours from takeoff into the Great Unkown…or the Great Adventure…or the Amazing Journey…or whatever you want to call our voyage to Ethiopia to bring Little Girl home to be with us!
My mind is spinning with so many things to do and thoughts and emotions that I really want to share. But I don’t have time right now because I have to finish sanitizing a bunch of dishes thanks to the presents left by a furry little rodent in our kitchen cabinets.
From what I’ve heard, we will have at least some access to an Internet connection while in Addis Ababa. It’ll probably be dialup, so we won’t be uploading images on facebook or videos on youtube (although that would be pretty cool). In addition to the slow connection, our agency has asked that we refrain from publishing pictures publicly of our beautiful daughter until she’s home with us (which won’t be much longer!).
In the meantime, while we are traveling, we have set up a new email account that will be strictly related to our journey. If you would like to receive email updates from us while we are in Ethiopia, leave a comment below. In order to protect your privacy so you won’t be bombarded with spam, I’ll keep your comment outside of public view.
Then, be on the lookout from an email addressed to you from an account that ends in gmail, and includes our family’s last name and something about a journey and adoption. If you do not receive an email from me by Tuesday evening, post another comment and I’ll get it fixed.
Is that cryptic enough?
OK, back to packing and sanitizing dishes! Woo Hoo! This thing is really happening!!
