Day 59: Red Rose

 

The San Diego trip was great but it is time to say bye until the next time. I will switch gears to Ethiopia for a day or two. This rose was taken on the way to Debra Berhan which is approximately in the center of Ethiopia. I think the city is about 600 years old and it is very interesting how it has maintained that feel. We ate at a restaurant that is owned by an Ethiopian olympian. Cannot remember the name now but the food was awesome (will re-post on the name). The scenery is simply breathtaking and it is quite interesting to see how the vegetation changes as you move from an elevation of approximately 2350m (7709ft.) in Addis Ababa to about 2771m (9091ft.) in Debra Berhan.
