Eggs scrambled & gallons of sweet, milky coffee. A young Ethiopian woman haunts us from a safe distance. Pops up from behind a bush, just staring. Next minute, she's behind a rock. What is she thinking?
Quick pack again and we're off. Up hill walking to 4200 meters, stunning view, first of many today. Back-track around gorge then downhill (unfortunately), means more up hill!
Absolutely shagged, arrive Chenek camp which is the most scenic of all, especially in the afternoon light.
Walk into our little camp hut to "G'day mate!". A German / South African / Australian guy (Melbourne) and his mate, another German, who are riding motor bikes from Germany to South Africa.
Camp cook prepares scrumptious meal, fresh tomato soup, pasta salad, beetroot salad, lentil salad, potato salad and pineapple again.
Light the fire in out little tukol camp hut and welcome other hikers, polish girls. Lively discussion involving everyone, including our guide and staff. Beze the scout looks like he may have a gastro like
illness. Our guide thinks may be malaria!?
Bed to gentle rain.
