Low visibility

The flights out of Bahir Dar to Addis Ababa were canceled due to
bad weather. It was slightly cloudy out at best, although "occasionally
sunny" would be the more accurate description. Nevertheless, we went to
the Ethiopian airlines office and they confirmed that the cancellation
was due to low visibility and they could issue our ticket for the next
day. Instead we canceled that ticket and bought another ticket from
Gondar to Addis Ababa. Gondar is about a 3 hour drive from Bahir Dar, so
we drove to Gondar and did some sightseeing. It was nice to have a
chance to see the ancient administrative capital of Ethiopia, so maybe
the flight cancellation was a good thing after all.
