More cold draft beer here... and so cheap! I never want to leave.
Aksum is the place where they keep the Arc of the Convenant. It's kept in a church where it is guarded by a monk dressed in yellow. No outsiders [foreigners] are allowed inside so you just have to believe it. The Ethiopians believe it. And the reason that you're not allowed inside is for your own benefit: you'd instantly go up in a puff of smoke as soon as you'd see the Arc... pure Indiana Jones stuff!!
