Comment: Since we were stranded, we paid a driver to take us on a 3 hour tour of Addis Ababa.

AddisAbaba - 01 * Ethiopian Airlines cancelled our flight and booked us on the next night's flight. They must do this a lot, they have their own fleet of buses to take passangers to their hotel. Then again, if they did do this a lot, they should be a lot more effecient at it. It took hours to get out of Bole airport.

AddisAbaba - 02 * Our room smelled of mildew and had paper thin walls. It was impossible to sleep with all of the yelling and shouting down the hall.

AddisAbaba - 03 * This is the view from our hotel window. Nice...
