Wednesday in Ethiopia

Wednesday morning was the first morning we woke up together as a family. Everyone woke up in a good mood and smiling. This day we mostly hung out together. Mid-morning we went to T's house to take pictures. He completely lost it when we arrived. The nannies explained he wasn't going to stay but nothing would claim him down. We took pictures and left pretty quickly.


This is a picture of the entrance to T's orphanage. The yellow door is the entrance. While we were there members of our group witnessed mothers trying to leave their children at the orphanage on two separate occasions.

This is the entrance to T's house.

All the laundry was done by hand. While we had K he would need to change clothes about 5 times a day. Times that by all the children=lots of laundry. It was the rainy season when we were there.It rained everyday. Every time it rained I felt so bad for who ever was in charge of the laundry. How could you get it to dry?

The other picture is of T's bed. Most children shared their bed with other child. As you can see T isn't to happy to be back. The other picture is of the children in T's house eating.

Here is the alley way leading to K's house and where we stayed at Horizon House. Below is the entrance.
