Excursions

Drive North to the historic route to the 13^th Century medieval monastery of Debre Libanos at 120kms form Addis Abeba. It is an active worshiping center of Ethiopian orthodox religion where a number of nuns and monks are still neutrally living. On the way visit the 16^th c Portuguese bridge and the Jemma valley where the endemic Gelada Baboons are sheltered on its cliffs. Then proceed to the Blue Nile River gorge, which is as much bigger, wider and dipper as the grand canyon of America.  After lunch, drive to Addis Abeba. O/n hotel
