Addis Abeba – eine riesige Baustelle<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

After the exhausting tour yesterday, we proceed slower. After breakfast, we meet Jan Blum, the Manager of KfW-Office in Addis.
\nHe reports on the impressive development of the country in the past years – however starting from a very low level.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Construction work is going on for hotels and office buildings, but we saw also Homes to be built<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

KfW supports in Ethiopia the implementation of Germany\u2019s famous dual education system for apprenticeship, combined with theoretical teaching in stately owned schools.<\/p>\n

Jan also gave interesting hints on a tour operator, that provides hiking tours while supporting local communities.<\/p>\n

Wendelin, who visited Ethiopia in 1991 confirms that he also doesn\u2019t recognise anything from the former time. Construction work is going on all over Addis – and specially the new tramway changes the image of the town.<\/p>\n

Meskal in 1991 – the building with the Mercedes Star is also to be seen on the above picture – but very small, behind the tramway<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Traffic is chaotic but not aggressive – somehow everybody passes through the traffic jams without honking and screaming.<\/p>\n

Also our driver is very careful and manages to get through, even if it is millimetre work.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Millimetre work – but all in all relaxed – traffic in Addis<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Close to the German Embassy, we find the recommended tour operator and discuss an arrangement for two hikes in the North of Ethiopia. Details still have to be finalised.<\/p>\n

Then we go back to Caravan hotel for a nap.<\/p>\n

The hotel looks not very appealing from the outside, but is quite nice inside – with warm shower and Internet working form time to time.<\/p>\n

Tonight we are having dinner at a Lebanese restaurant, also a recommendation from Jan. As our stomachs a not in the best condition, we have to apologise for not eating all.<\/p>\n

Tomorrow, we will fly to Dire Dawa.<\/p>\n
