Ethiopian Snap Shots

A few more snap shots from our time in Ethiopia...

In Arba Minch there was no running water so this is how we washed our hair :) Below there is a picture from the market place in Arba Minch.


While we were in Jinka we went to a church about 1 hour away, very lively and fun.


One of the elders in the church reading his Bible.

The kids sat at the front.


Below are a few pictures from Mursi, a tribe in South Omo, a couple of hours drive from Jinka. Some SIM missionaries are working there.

One of the young girls we met

Below are a few pictures from Jinka town and surroundings.

This little girl was relaxing by the road when we passed.

Some of the many kids who wanted to hold our hands when we went for walks in the town.


Above and below: Heading home after a long day of work.

Which path to choose?

A beautiful sunset in Jinka!

I hope you enjoyed the pictures, they only show a little bit of what we experienced and how colorful life is in Ethiopia! We absolutely love that country and it's people!
