videos of bahir dar

I talked about this trip on my October 21, 2007 blog. Here are a few videos to go along with those written adventures.

First, here is the ROCKY gorge we traveled through while heading North.



We were VERY determined to see a hippo before we got off the boat. Here is a video (courtesy of Rob Shields) of the hippo who played hide and seek with us for a half hour. stare at the middle of the screen and watch the water...



While exploring the local monasteries by boat, we tried to spot hippos. Here, Amon is trying his best to call those hippos through his own special animal language.



And here is another of Amon pretending to BE a monkey.



MONKEY! this little guy was quite a disturbance to the staff at the hotel where he was playing.



Joy and I had our prayers answered. We had the privilege of eating dinner with these sweet new friends.
