We walk (a new way) to Kidane Mheret., maybe a little lost.
Play ball with children.
Hilton hotel again for internet access & Coka (Cola). Walk to 'Finfine
Adrash' hotel for lunch then walk to area where we catch mini-bus. This is
a memorable journey. Bus fills to capacity or maybe a little more, then
revs up and takes off screaming through the traffic. Engine is about to
conk out so driver revs even more especially up hill going so slowly and
kind of slaloming up hill to make it easier. Other cars and trucks weave
around us. Engine dies and we sit in the middle of road - fiddling with
battery. Suddenly roll backwards to roll start success & super revving
with smoke billowing through cabin. Up hill slowly again this time revving
madly. A couple more minutes of this with slow progress and the thing dies
all together, in the middle of the road we all pile out and some get
refund. Walk to find taxi to Kidane Mheret.
We meet teacher from school next door & find class room to film in.
Up stairs for rest - Ollie 10 minute nap then meet children and guardians.
Give little talk about project and show parts of CCF film.
Photograph Church, cement ooze splash! pack up then taxi home @ 8:30, fall
straight to sleep, no dinner
