Back in Addis...

Oh, the smell of livestock! There were usually various herds of livestock roaming certain roads in Addis, of course with their respective herders. Pockets like these, mainly ram/goats were paraded for sale in certain parts of town.

Another reminder of my childhood in Nigeria. I guess the various herds become more apparent as celebrations approach. Actually, on one occasion, I do vaguely remember haggling for one as an intended gift (much to the seller's amazement that I could actually speak/calculate a little in Amharic...that's always a joy to see). The prices were amazingly low!
