Blessed to be in the land of beautiful people – Ethiopia!
What an amazing warm, gracious welcome from Saada and her family. Her brother picked me up from the airport and then gave us his driver for the length of my stay at Hotel Siyonat.
It has been such a healing blessing; being with wonderful people, eating nourishing food (a vegan buffet at the Taitu Hotel!), standing on the very ground where King Menelik II and Queen Taitu fought and won the battle of Adwa, learning how Queen Taitu changed the name of the capital city from Entoto to Addis Ababa (which means “new flower”), as well a more about the traditions at cultural restaurant Yod Abyssinia, and traveling to the countryside, meeting Saada’s father and seeing where she grew up, meeting her husband’s niece (enjoying Ethiopian hospitality at each stop), then on to a spa by Lake Kuriftu was all so magical and Divinely ordered.
There is a City of Refuge Church in Addis Ababa! It feels like home – can’t believe I waited so long to get here!
Here are a few photos:

I’ve been on record for a real long time now, in fact, dating back to when I was still in high skool, as advocating strongly the dissolution of this country’s publik skool system. Its origins are deliberately obscured but readily available to anyone interested and it has become a millstone around all our necks. But the State’s interest and that of the teachers’ unions and system administrators have always trumped that of parents and children and taxpaying citizens. OFD

Mi è capitato di leggere un commento sul blog di Straker. Un tizio afferma di sentire uno strano ronzio nelle orecchie, e chiede se possa avere a che fare con fonti elettromagnetiche.Evidentemente Strakkino e so(r)ci non hanno mai sentito parlare di acufeni… Ma forse tutti gli otorini sono parte del complotto…
