<\/a> <\/p>\nRoadwork’s everywhere!<\/p>\n
Dale navigating a pass. Can you spot the camel?<\/p>\n More dramatic Ethiopian countryside.<\/p>\n<\/a> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/a> <\/p>\n
The road to Debark from Axum turned out to be worse than we anticipated. Whilst the drive itself is magnificent from a scenery perspective, there are roadwork’s going on, on the mountain passes that just make the roads a mess and barely passable. The fact that its the rainy season and the roads are a muddy slush in half the places doesn’t help either!! Roadwork’s aside, the road itself was tough. The 350km to Debark took 9 hours to complete.<\/p>\n
We are spending the night at the simien mountain lodge which is supposedly the highest hotel in Africa at 3300m and although we were planning on spending three nights here, we have decided to press on to the Sudan tomorrow as we are unimpressed with this place for the money they charge.<\/p>\n
We are absolutely exhausted and tomorrow will be the 4th day of riding in a row\u2026apologies for the curt entry today but I cant keep my eyes open!<\/p>\n
