The start of another journey

It is that time again, we have just spent Christmas in Spain, the first for many years.
It was such fun decorating the tree, Vanessa and Hugo joined us on Christmas eve and left on the 30th December.

We missed our - Grandchildren, but the Spirit of Christmas and and our collection of ducks looked down on baby Jesus

After the New Year we few to the UK to be with Fiona and Jolyon for a few days before the beginning of another adventure - this time to Ethiopia

We will be leaving in a few days and the excitement is building - Ethiopia is a country we have wanted to visit for many years, but the political situation got in the way, how ever we feel that the time is right. You will probably be glad to know that we will not be wandering around as we usually do! We will be joining a small group of people - 8 in all on a tour organised by Wild Frontiers. We will be visiting the northern highlands, where the Christian Religion goes back almost to the time of Christ himself. Churches are carved out of rock below and above ground, the people live by a different calendar to us and we shall be visiting Lake Tana, the source of the Blue Nile.

Blogging may prove difficult at times, but  I will do my best!
