Zenab

I don't think that I have talked much about the weather in Addis.
I'm sure that when you think of Addis Ababa, you think of a very hot
and dry African city. That is certainly not the case here! Addis is
high up in the mountains, so the weather is actually cooler. We
probably have a good amount of days in the 80's, but it sure can get
chilly at night! Most days are probably in the 70's. Right now, we
just entered the rainy season. It rains (Zenab) every day. When it
rains, the temperature drops quite a bit. I actually spend most of
the day walking around in a sweatshirt!
Tomorrow, I am heading out of the city for the weekend. I will be
in Harar, which is an old Muslim city that has a wall all the way
around it. If you have seen the Ethiopian episode of Bizarre Foods,
they spent a good amount of time in Harar. Harar is also famous for
the hyena man. Basically, this guy feeds the hyenas outside of the
gate every night. He often feeds them by mouth (ewwwww!!!). It
should be interesting to see.
I have been spending some time this week arranging something pretty
exciting. Hopefully I will be ready to share it with you all next
week!!!

Have a great weekend!!!!
