Traveler One thing Tom forgot to mention about the murals in the monasteries: the paint is all made out of natural materials: plants, insects, ground stones. They have not been restored or touched-up, yet the colors are as beautiful and vivid as when they were painted 700 years ago.
Traveler Also… we were the only visitors to the monasteries today. We had them to ourselves and our guide. A monk unlocked them with a big medieval key.

On a les mêmes qui bossent mais sur un domaine bien particulier et toujours un /une autre qui regarde les autres bosser .....sauf que SAP emploie de jolis termes marketing pour faire d’jeune et dynamique 😁

Beautiful dresses!
Traveler Oh my, between the date and time, I'm very confused. Seems like it makes communication with anyone outside Ethiopia pretty challenging.
Traveler Your photos are so unique Tom! No other tourists, just locals. The blue Nile sounds interesting. Will look that up!
