Today, we had a short visit with Tig that started quite well. She was excited to see us. She fell asleep in Katrinka's arms as Brian distracted the other children. It is amazing how "inka binka bottle of ink" can be so hilarious to Ethiopian kids. Unfortunately, when Tig woke up, she refused to let Katrinka feed her lunch (curly pasta with spaghetti sauce). We did manage quite a few Cheerios earlier in the day, so we know she wont starve. It was VERY hard to leave, and we decided that tomorrow will be the day that we bring her back to the Hotel to be a full-time Mannelly.
A high point of the day was dinner outside the Hilton at the Finfine Restaurant (thanks Brianna & Sasha for the most excellent recommendation)! A completely authentic culinary experience we wont soon forget. We braved the walk home (only 10 blocks or so) and were happy that no 'little escorts' joined our trek back. Tomorrow promises to be a big day!
PS...
