I nipped to Ethiopia last week, as one does. Pretty amazed that Ethiopian Airlines flies non-stop Toronto-Addis Ababa
 |
| I have held research and policy consultations in many places, but few so lovely as this church |
 |
| The dilemma of every trip - when there is just one "bought for the plane journey" sweetie left to last X amount of days... |
 |
| A welcome view and sound from my hotel window |
 |
| Had to stop for coffee! (at an Italianesque chain) |
 |
| This poster brought back vivid memories of a Grade 5 project I did with my pal Nadine |
 |
| Even Ethiopia has a (elite/private) high school robotics team! |
 |
| Addis has happily accepted Chinese investment |
 |
| including new light rail |
 |
| 3 weeks in and it was very efficient, clean and well-patrolled by police (but not ticket inspectors) - and notice that there is NO advertising |
 |
| with more money pouring in |
 |
| and then 5 1/2 days later, having eaten well and listened to many voices, it was time to head home |
 |
| where the new airport train is over-priced and empty |
