Nov 27-29, 2015 My 13th trip to Ethiopia
The day after Thanksgiving I left Philly for my 13th trip to Ethiopia. We have traveled on this day before and it is actually a good day to travel. We have lots to be thankful for: Lufthansa didn't go on strike even though earlier in the week there was a threat of a strike; all of our plans for travel, equipment gathering, accommodation planning, team planning came together and were well organized; all of our team members got here without any difficulty and we didn't have any significant issues with our bags.
Our team has 15 members from Philly, NJ, Delaware, Reading, Pittsburgh, Nashville, Michigan, California, Texas, Alaska and the Netherlands! We have ENT surgeons, audiologists, anesthesiologists, a medical student and our administrative director.
Sunday some members of the ENT gave lectures and did a hands on lab, and two of us went to church. Some went to the National museum, we dropped equipment off at Cure and had a team dinner at the Italian restaurant in the hotel.
Tomorrow- ENT clinic, audiology evaluations and helping with the Cure OR.
