This morning Asmara came to the hotel at 07.00 to pick me up to show me around  Addis Abeba. What a chaotic city! There were only a few traffic lights, there are no traffic signals. I don’t know how they can drive without crashing. The seat of the car was not fixed well to the car and I felt as if I was on a roller coaster.

I could see many churches, we could see one where they were “singing”, Asmara sang me a religious song. There were hundreds of people walking down the street. They were going to either school or to work. I could see many people carrying heavy packages, pieces of wood, kilos and kilos of fruits on their head…, as in the rest of the country.

As I have not had much time to visit the city I’ll do it when I come back.
