Ethiopia...Part 1

How about that for a synopsis? There are people in Ethiopia. And here is pictographic evidence!
Stories to follow (I'm still trying to get through my inbox now that I am back in the Congo!)
Collage (clockwise from the left): an old man with huge glasses and a cool hat...New Years troubadours (cute as a buttons)...another guy...the cutest little girl ever...another old man, spotted amongst a group of mafioso like characters sitting in front of a coffe shop--not unlike the back room at Abruzzo...two street kids(traded Birr for pictures)...another street kid...my buddy from worldvision, his face has been like that ever since making a funny face as a child...a kid who threw himself in the lake for me (weird, huh?)


right, more pictures to follow, and of course the skinny on all my misadventures...
(maybe its a bit early, but I'm going to be headng out of country late december....anyone have any suggestions. I'm looking for a little bit of peace and quiet, and ANONYMITY.
Pace e tranquillo

Hmm... I thought we were supposed to go together!! :) Back in the U.S of A. - reentry is a bitch ...
Cheerio!
Panagia Monastery, Cyprus?
I dare you!!
How about North Vancouver for Christmas, Katie's coming... Grandma thinks NY for Christmas... True?

New York, Cyprus, Mexico, Vancouver...Whatever the destination, it must satisfy 3 criteria
1. accessible in less than 2 days travel
2. promote anonymity
3. without solitude--its the holidays!

Your criteria filled only by Panagia Monastery, Cyprus. You will not be alone. Fr Maximos, if he's there, knows how to celebrate. He's a celebrant for heaven's sake.
eh! there's a Jordanian in Langley who makes real Turkish coffee. Can you believe it? $2.35, though.
I double dare you.
God might even "show" up.
