Running away
That's it. We've had enough of the rainy season. We're off for a few weeks to catch up with folks back home and see some unseasonal sun.
It will be great to get some unfettered access to Ethiopia's Blogspot blogs once again. What they can't tell me, I'll learn online from my daily doses of ENA and Walta.
While I'm away I thought you would like to see the new-look Meskel Square with its brand new video screen near the junction with Debre Zeit road. There seems to be a new ad banner going up every day somewhere on the square. By the time we get back, the whole thing will probably be covered.
The 18-lane junction seems a bit smaller now that it is plastered with ads for Ethiopian Airlines and Sony flat-screen TVs. But at least it means business is booming for someone somewhere. Go to Flickr to see snatch shots of our last drive through Addis.
