Addis Ababa - Day 1

Flew about 6 hours from mumbai to ethiopia's capital. I was lucky to get out as mumbai experienced wild amounts of rain and many flights were cancelled.

Unfortunately lots of rain, and fairly cold (18C) in addis ababa too. I didn't realize august is winter in ethiopia. Had to go to my tour guide office to pay for my 3 day tour which took me to an area of the city you could easily mistake for Los Angeles. Modern downtown, wide beautiful boulevards with palm trees everywhere.

Later ended up at a super traditional ethiopian restaurant for an unusual meal and honey wine plus quite the band and stage show. Very fun and unique experience.

Had to up at 5am for a very early flight.. so another early night.Les mer
