I've really enjoyed your pictures and commentary through your travels. A lot of people in the West still seem to view Africa as the hinterland without understanding the rich culture that is there; it's great to see your pictures reflect that.
I hope those kids bought some candy. :)
Thanks, I appreciate it. Ethiopian history is especially interesting because the ties to the world outside of the African continent started in Biblical times. They were separated for so long from the rest of Christianity following the emergence of Islam, much of that old world was preserved.
