share the fun.
Everything here is going well in Addis and in just over two days we head
to the mountains.
It's very unlikely that we'll have any access to email or phone contact.
I'll keep writing my journal notes and update the blog when I can.
In Addis, i'm constantly frustrated with the abysmal internet here.
There's almost no access, The government filters all traffic which slows
the speed to much less than dial-up. It's also easier to receive and much
harder to send. Weird?! There's two places i've found with free wi-fi and
a paid service at the two big hotels here. I treck across town to use the
internet and only one out of five times can I get any connection at all.
That's my winge. I do love getting you emails but please no images - they
get stuck.
Oh and I can even see my blog, the government blocks it.
I've prepared a collection of postings to let you know what's been
happening. If you are subscribed to the blog, you're about to get a whole
bunch of emails.
I cant wait to hear from you. Tim, Japi and I leave for our journey
Tuesday early morning. We're eight hours behind Melbourne, so 8pm your
time is 12 noon here. Tim's mobile is +61 251 911 455 210 in case you need
to ring. My iPhone is locked to Optus, so I cant buy a local sim (forgot
to unlock it before I left). Hurrah I hear you say!
Blog postings next..
xx Ollie
