Dessie to Addis


400 km took 9 hours of driving.  A long day, couple of mountain passes and lots of villages, pedestrians and animals.
Late this afternoon we slowed down to allow 2 cows to cross a wide road. One did while the other stood in the next lane. A taxi came with too much speed and at the last moment the cow turned around. The taxi just hit the cow on the rump. I heard the bang and in my rear view mirror I saw glass from the impact. To my absolute surprise the cow walked off with a slight limp. The taxi carried on going !
Tomorrow morning we leave at 07 h00 to drive to the Bale Mountains. 
Best wishes to you all.☺
