AWASH NATIONAL PARK

3 weekends of Addis Ababa nightlife is definetively too much. So, Olga, marialaura, Michele, Corrado and myself decided to explore the famous nationa park of Awash. Lions are supposed to be there, but we mostly think that the only lions that were there decided to withdraw to better places... so the most attractives animals are the Dick Dick (pls do not comment on that.... :)) Gazelles, Monkey, Crocodiles, Ostrichs, Baboons...... We brought tents, soft mattresses and a sleeping bag, so the camping would have been more confy. We spent 2 great days, among the dick dick and the flies, playing 7 and 1/2 and making fun of each other. Enjoy the pictures........

Finally: CALI!!!

Voila, il Cali eccolo qua!!
Landed last week, we have been enjoying so many places, restaurants, clubs… and the next weekend will be dedicated to the discover of WONCHI, little village WITHIN a Vulcan!!
We first went to Sululta, a green and flat area right behind Addis Ababa, at 3000 mt, In the middle of nowhere, with no cars, no buses, no bars.. Just small wood houses, cows and sheep, but above all little kids playing SOCCER. We brought along a ball, which we suddenly threw among the guys. 2 teams, with us leading. The ground not less than 200 meters, and from the close villages people were running to welcome us. A never ending match took place, no result, just fun. If you look at the pictures you will notice it.
Then Memo at night, “interesting” place where you are assaulted by local beauties, especially if you are a foreigner. But paying and that does not count J So it might be good for your self-confidence.
Other than that we went to Sodere, to get some tan, relax and watch the monkeys.
But words cannot really explain everything, so pls look at the pics I’m posting and leave some comments….
