And so to Ethiopia

 Goodbye Nairobi and hello Addis Ababa. Like a lot of African countries, and maybe our own too, there are contrasts.

 We arrived at the swanky modern airport, externally at least.

And this is the view from our friends' flat of the neighbourhood. Now it really is a matter of viewpoint, because when we arrived at their flat, we thought even that was a bit bare and basic. A walk around town though and you realise it is comparatively affluent. And as the poorer properties are removed to make way for the high rise hotels and offices, you also realise that some heritage and culture is being destroyed where once you might have called them slums.
