After leaving Lake Longano we drove north through Addis Ababa on our way to Ambo, stopping at a small wildlife resort for lunch. There were monkeys playing in the backyard as we ate! Then we visited Wonchi Crater Lake, high in the mountains near Ambo. The view of the lake from the surrounding mountains was beautiful, and our guide Alem said it is his favorite place in Ethiopia.
We arrived in Ambo in time for dinner. The city is known for its springs, which produce fizzy mineral water that is bottled in Ambo and sold throughout Ethiopia. This naturally carbonated beverage also bears the name Ambo.
Each day, we have the opportunity to look out the van window at the towns, villages, and farmland. Everywhere we look, there are people who have overwhelming need. I am glad that through our many donors and supporters we are able to help this beautiful country, though I wish that change would come sooner for the people living in poverty here.
