Its been over a year since I got back and frankly, its taken me that long to feel ready to write about the rest of the trip. After getting up to Addis we ended up returning south to the Omo valley which was both interesting and challenging but disappointing.
- Roadworks for miles putting in a highway for air conditioned tourist buses to visit the locals like a trip to the zoo - end of remoteness
- Extreme commercialism of the local tribes way of life
- Robbery - (ground tent was slit with a knife and stuff taken while someone was asleep inside)
- High hassle factor from everyone you met
Then we had a traffic adventure on the way to Lalibela where although we were going extremely slowly due to the high number of people and animals on the road and old man ran across the road right in front of us.
