Ethiopia (Trip 2) "Road Trip"

We flew out of Fort Wayne Friday, June 23rd on a very short flight to Chicago for an overnight lay-over. Thanks to Amit and Kyann who met us in Chicago Friday night for dinner!

Getting read to fly out of Fort Wayne. Lots of butterflies!


We flew out of Chicago early Saturday morning and arrived in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia on Sunday morning. Tsegaw, our driver, met us at the airport and took us for a two day road trip to Shashemene and Ziway. A few pictures of the trip...


Trying to capture the beauty we were seeing. 
In Ethiopia, there are many transportation options!
We saw lots of cows...
...and camels!
Acacia trees!
Shashemene
Shashemene was looking lush. The lighter fields in the background are teff fields, 
which is what injera (Ethiopian bread) is made of.
Great views of Lake Ziway
Plowing
Another beautiful shot of the views we enjoyed!
I love this picture. These girls were posing for Jon and giggled the whole time!
