African Pride...

Everywhere you walk in Addis Ababa, you see the national colours of Ethiopia proudly displayed; not just as flags, but shop window displays, taxi cab stickers, particularly attire (writstbands etc...). I don't think it just for the tourist. I am, somehow, led to believe that there is a level of unrivalled patriotism and national pride when it comes to this nation.

The folk talk about their country in cafes, in the cars etc...with such passion and endearment, it's quite moving. I am now looking forward to visiting other African nations and tasting some more of this "African Pride".
