Our Chapel

Meganonia Branch we had 6 baptisms last  weekend!!

The church lot is really beautiful! There are three Americans in our branch

Life in Addis

A Dress Shop






Lots of Billboards

This is a ceramics shop 



This is the Friendship City Center - closest thing to a strip mall. Very close to our house.

??


The Blue Donkey Bus Station

Familiar site - you have to be very careful with animals in the streets - if you hit one they sue.



This store is just around the corner from our home.

Furniture and Tire Store

Local FEDEX shop

This is the German Bakery that is soooo Delicious!!
This is where we get our bread and other sweet things!

This is the Freeway in Addis called the "Ring Road"
Notice the people walking - they actually have the right of way no matter what. If you hit a pedestrian you go to jail - you are in the wrong.

Our local Pepsi distribution building



These are goats - goats have their tail up, Sheep tails down


Local butchering place - fresh meat all the time!

These are sheep - their tails are down
(they do not raise them for their wool)

They do recycle here!

Going to the butcher!
