The five travelers arrived in Ethiopia on Sunday morning after a 12 and a half hour flight from DC.  We promptly met up with Water to Thrive founder Dick Moeller and our tour guide for the trip, Alem. After taking a little bit of time to rest, we spent some time exploring Addis Ababa. At the Ethiopian National Museum, we learned about Ethiopia’s long history and even got to visit a replica of ancient human ancestor "Lucy," who was discovered here.

We also viewed the beautiful stained glass windows at Trinity Cathedral, an Ethiopian Orthodox church that also commemorates Ethiopia’s liberation from Italy after World War II. After our dinner at the Kaleb Hotel complete with cupcakes for dessert, everyone is looking forward to a restful night so that we can be ready for tomorrow’s drive south to Zeway.

Thanks for following along with our travels! We will share more of our adventures in the next few days.
