Hales in Ethiopia 2013

Currently listening to rain and hail... what?!?! It's supposed to be DRY season! 

This post is a bit delayed in coming, but I wanted to share about the week and a half my family came to visit! It was so wonderful to have them here seeing my life now. It was a time of reconnecting with Ethiopia; seeing the changes in the city, remembering the things that are exactly the same, meeting up with old friends, introducing them to my current colleagues and students- a time to show them my world.

Experiencing some Ethiopian culture at Imayu's house in our gabis and netelas!

My mom meeting up with one of her 7-11 (grocery store) buddies, Abdo

Visiting Born Free, an animal rescue place- one of the highlights for the group!

Hanging out at Deborah House with the girls that live there- another highlight :)



Loved having my family here!!
