All the stuff I brought over to Addis for Dr. Paul has paid off. I got my new Casio Exilim camera gratis. It was a busy day at work but OK. We went Chinese for lunch which worked for me. Dr. Paul was not feeling 100% and wanted to leave work early. I convinced the others to do the same so I was home by 5PM. What a treat and the traffic is so much less earlier than later. I had dinner with Bill, a guy in the guest house. We went to Rodeo Addis, a supposed tex mex joint that he had been to before. The only thing tex mex about the place was the cowboy hats worn by the staff. I had a steak sandwich with fries (2 food groups ... red and yellow) then we cabbed it back to the guest house. I am pumped about having a camera again and will try to get a shot of me in 1) a white sports jacket 2) a HUGELY bright orange dress shirt 3) a white tie 4) black pants 5) Pink Floyd DSOTM running shoes Running shoes are the most comfortable with my foot in a tensor bandage. As I collect pictures from Tagel for our trips to Weliso and Awassa I will get some stuff up to Facebook. |
