The people are wonderful and very sweet with children - they always come up to us and kiss the children on the cheeks. Angela was used to it but Ben was wary at first.
Hot. Smog. Exhaust fumes. No or very little/narrow sidewalk.
Drought. Daily power failure. Blackouts.
Lots of coffee shops.
Very, very good coffee (even for a non-coffee drinker like me).
Outside of Addis - very beautiful. Lots of trees and flowers. No smog.
Lots of fresh locally grown fruits - mango, papaya.
Sheraton Hotel. High-end, expensive. Very nice. Sumptous Happy Father's Day brunch.
US Embassy - no cameras allowed. No photos allowed within perimeter.
Very rich history and culture.
Will visit again but will stay outside of Addis and discover the beauty of the rest of Ethiopia.
