Pack car and have coffee and cake. On the road again. Small towns
semi-urban. more tin roofs. Road works (Ethiopian this time, not Chinese)
bridges being made. Three wise men - sheep herders that walk hundreds of
kilometers buying, fattening and selling their flock. Concrete factories
polluting. Long straight road. A little filming out window. Arrive
Gashema. Quickly pack donkeys - Ollie horrified as packs and some camera
gear slung with ropes over poor little donkeys. Not sure whether to have
more concern for donkey or camera gear. Walk to first camp, Aterow, a
beautiful view on the edge of the escarpment. Valley floor, hundreds of
meters below.
Tea, bread, honey on arrival. Then Make bed in fantastic hut. Take photos
/ video. Dinner after dark. Thick vege soup, rice with vege goulash + beer
by fire on floor indoors - yum!
Brilliant stars, deep sleep.
