Ethiopia -Addis

We spent 5 days in Ethiopia's capital city awaiting our Sudanese visas. Addis provided a welcome break after 5 days of dusty roads. I was really looking forward to seeing my friend Hortense here. ( We met in the residence in Lille) Unfortunately she moved to Tunisia three weeks before we arrived! She did however provide me with some excellent recommendations for restaurants, spas and other interesting things to do in her city! The very first day we were there some of the girls headed off to the spa for a cheap massage. Only 11.00$ an hour including the tip! The ladies at the spa took suck good care of our aching muscles we went back a second time!

In Addis we went to see Lucy. She is a 3.5 -million-year-old skeleton thought to be a huge discovery in the human chain of evolution!

We also went to Tomoca a famous coffee shop. Ethiopian coffee is fantastic and I bought some to bring home!
