Ethiopia

August 2009

Both food & coffee (their specialty) were awesome. The Ethiopian coffee ceremony takes about 40 minutes from roasting the green beans, crushing them and brewing the coffee over hot coals.






August is a winter month in Ethiopia, so the flowers were in full bloom, the grass was green and the weather was mild.

The Ethiopian Orthodox Church believes the Ark of the Covenant was taken by Solomon's & the Queen of Sheba's son - to Ethiopia. They see themselves as guardians of Old Testament history. King Haile Selassie's seat is reserved for him in the church.
