While we wait...


We have accepted the fact that we have a long wait ahead of us, but we are doing some things to keep busy in the meantime. We bought a new Ethiopian Jazz album that we love and have been listening to a lot.


We also had our first Ethiopian food today. We stopped at an Ethiopian Restaurant in St. Paul called Fasika and tried a big combo platter. It was delicious and we got to sample a little bit of everything. Jackson and Olivia ate well and enjoyed the meal too. The only negative is that there were so many good things on the plate and we don't know what any of them are called to order next time!


We also discovered a new family hobby that is occupying our time. It is called geocaching and you use a gps device to locate "caches" that other people have hidden. In each cache there is a log book to sign and some trinkets. You are supposed to take something and leave a new trinket in it's place. We have looked for 4 caches so far, and found 2 of them. The other two eluded us, so now we have to go back and try again the next time we are in New Ulm!
