Christmas Eve
It’s Christmas Eve (although not for the Orthodox locals who won’t celebrate for another two weeks).
I spent the morning walking through the seventeenth century castle, the remains of the age of anthers, their buckets and battlements noted that it seemed that should belong in Morocco or Spain, not the SSA.
For lunch, I had a bitter coffee pancake covered with various spicy dishes, washed down with some thick, rich coffee, while sitting in an Italian cafe built Art Deco, while photos of Selassie I looked at the walls.
The afternoon was spent in a XVI century church, decorated with a rich tapestry of paintings of saints, angels, demons, and the Virgin Mary. A priest in a turban, dressed in white, with a large gold cross hanging from his neck, sat in the corner watching the world go by, and smiling for the obligatory pictures, as tourists and their zoom lenses parade.
And now I'm sitting on the flip-flop in Goha Hotel, overlooking the city of Gondar far below, like vultures and red kites circle above, and the highlands of Ethiopia, resembles a scene from The Lord of the rings, rise and fall in the distance.
Could only be Ethiopia.
Merry Christmas.
