Hi all
This one is very brief, but just to let you know that we're safe and sound, and back in Addis Ababa. Our transit through Sudan was rapid (in view of the delicate situation prevailing at the time), but entirely uneventful. Almost an anticlimax, in fact, given all the news that was pouring out of the country at the time!
We're in Addis literally only long enough to collect my sister-in-law, Vicki, from the airport (duly done last night), refuel and then head south. Our next destination, probably the wildest part of our entire trip, is the Omo Valley in Southern Ethiopia, after which we cross through into Kenya on the shores of Lake Turkana, meet up with Matthew and Alice and wend our way back through the Chalbi Desert to Nairobi. Expected arrival in Nairobi 4th April, which is the same day that a) Jake arrives after completing his first term at baording school in SA and b) Vicki leaves us (there being only one free space in the vehicle!).
We don't expect to find too many internet cafes between here and Nairobi, so no panic if you don't hear anything from us. Silence means we're having a blast!!
Till next month, then......
Gus
