... dell’orario internazionale!!!!<br><br>Potevamo fare i turisti ancora per la mattinata e poi finalmente partire! Abbiamo seguito quindi Abba Tomas in una sua uscita al villaggio vicino, doveva andare da un malato terminale di AIDS e impartirgli dei sacramenti. Raggiunta la capanna abbiamo trovato una quarantina di donne sedute per terra su pelli di capra e mucca all’ingresso dell’abitazione.<br><br>Cantavano e battevano le mani con davanti delle ...
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia sistercrystal... something between pec exercises and specific muscle group coordination, all while hopping around the floor, kicking and screaming and gesticulating wildly to music that is best described as a cross between Mungo Jerry and Khmer-language gantreum from Surin in Thailand's border region with Kampuchea. The coffee is excellent, apparently an Italian legacy, and cheap too, as it should be, except in the foreigner haunts complete ...
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia hardiek... weekly salary in Ethiopia, but it was definately worth it. After the visit to the church, we kept towards the centre of the city, The Piazza. In the meantime we passed through another local church, decorated in traditional Ethiopian decorations, made that church different from any other worship house I've ever seen, and I've seen hundreds. In the Piazza we asked Sessey to stop in a coffee shop to grab something to eat. It was already 9:00AM ...
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia gsella... and cities across England, except the goal posts were a little more 'rural' than in England. Straightish branches instead of white painted and planed wood made the goals, varying sizes and heights. No pitch markings either, so in true 'jumpers for goalposts' style, wingers had free reign to take the ball as wide as they liked and cross it in from half a mile out, if they saw fit. Throw ins are just a myth in Ethiopia. Beline had rounded up a group of locals ...
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia spooky388... to go to london tommorow, so we ask them to find it, and i go on the hunt to change money, i get back from waking some poor old lady up in the exchange bureaux to find still no bags, so i go and ask and discover nothing was actually done the first time, so the man goes and sorts it while me and wig fall asleep in the waiting bit, wake up to find our bags next to us, and roll out in the ******* rain and freezing cold addis to get a taxi at 2.30am! go ...
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia emmy87We made it! Hard to believe that travel between 2 places barely 350km apart could take longer than it took us to travel from Canada! I am glad that we are going to be stationed in one place rather than moving every day, but part of me is sad a the same time. I really enjoyed seeing these interesting places and small towns, and am not that excited about the city. However, the most exciting thing is that we get to meet Noah today! Habtamu is is ...
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia 2totango... and bars and roadside stalls selling fruit and meat. And everywhere, absolutely EVERYWHERE there are people, old, young (lots of em), and many pregnant women (very high birthrate in Ethiopia and depending on who you ask, a National Family Planning campaign missing in action). We stayed in a rather musky hotel room last night at the Itegue Taitu Hotel, recommended by the LP, but we're moving elsewhere tonight. We have ...
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia bonthorn... side by side. Then the "jumper", naked except for a cord around his neck, jumps on the back of the cattle and runs across, then repeats this 3 more times. Then he is a man and can successfully wed in the near future. We were just astounded!!! The ...
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia sgaudun... and kiosks have them. I tried calling Dr. Abate, but couldn't seem to get him on the phone, so I went to the university to meet him in person. I found him on campus between offices. The first person I asked for Dr. Abate's office was Dr. Abate. He took me to his office and told me repeatedly about the next day's schedule when he would show Annie and I the university biology lab, and his wife's company, Africa Mushrooms, PLC.
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia cpricci... a really badly delapitated house and right outside that house would be a shack. I saw all types of people sleeping ourside on the streets. Lots of people begging and I noticed lots of people who were crippled. When I asked my Uncle why they all exhibited the same kind of deformity he explained they were victims of Polio. It was very surreal experience and something as small as a vaccine could have made a world of difference to that person.
