Today we rode on the airplane for a looooooooooooooong time before we landed. (It just seemed like a long time because I was too excited to sleep :) Then at the airport we got our visas stamped, got our luggage and went to find Mr. Yates and Ms Emily who were going to pick us up. Mr Yates' driver, Tesfaye (pronounced like "tes-fie"), took us to the guesthouse in a big van.  We couldn't take pictures inside the airport but it wasn't like our airport.  I was happy to get out of it. 

We saw scaffolding and fences made of sticks like these everywhere.

 We went to our rooms with our luggage then waited for lunchtime. For lunch we had spaghetti. It had sauce but it was spicy so I just ate noodles. Then Tesfaye came and took us to the Yates' house. We stayed there for like three hours then we left so we could get back to the guesthouse in time for dinner.

This is me on the Yates' balcony.

These are some animals we saw from the Yates' balcony. Can you find a donkey?  cow?  sheep?

 For dinner was pizza: meat and spinach. You can probably guess which kind I ate :) The pizza was good but it had that spicy tomato sauce on it so I just scraped off the sauce. After dinner we hung around a while then went to bed.  I was very, very, very, very tired because I had been awake for 36 hours.  Mommy was tired too because she had been awake that long.  Tomorrow we finally get to go to Korah!
