Up early for a 4:30 am flight ...which means I arrived at airport at 2:00am. What an insane pace! I've learned that Ethiopians do not like waiting in line...he who pushes to the front of the line gets service.
Waited for check-in for 45 min and I was 4th in line...sooo I joined the "pushers" and eventually checked in and boarded the flight.
Airport in Addis Ababa is equally insane. But I learn fast..."pushed" through Passport Control and Customs to meet Ellen Taussig from the Gates Foundation.
Addis Ababa is much like Mumbai...except there are NO Traffic Lights or STOP signs.
Despite it being Good Friday (Sunday is Easter) there were lots of shoppers...a very vibrant city with Cows, goats and people sharing the streets.
Stay tuned...
