So money was tight. This was a good thing as it did not allow us to travel out of the country. Instead, we never left Ethiopia for 2 years, but rather spent our time traveling within the country.
It is a beautiful, but very poor country. Unfortunately politics has kept it poor - not allowing a healthy tourist trade.
We had an all-school reunion last year at the Ethiopian Embassy in Washington. The Ambassador joined us and graciously spent time at each table. It was great seeing all of our past students and reminscing about the good old days.
