The past week has been my final designated 'rest week'. I've been doing 2 things: wandering around the Ethiopian hinterland trying to find something interesting (not necessarily an easy task in such a vast country), and also fighting off the world's worst cold. I suspect I caught the virus on my forced flight from Nairobi. Yet another reason why overland travel is far superior in my book.
I'll be in Addis Ababa for a while longer though, hunting down visas for the next countries I intend/need to visit for my circumnavigation. Fingers crossed I'll be on the move again soon enough!
