Sunday's late lunch

On Sunday we slept in til about 10, had brunch at the hotel restaurant and then lazed around the hotel room for a while. I tried to catch up on some work, but got stir-crazy by the afternoon so we went down to Bole road by mini bus. I always think its fun to ride the mini buses along with the other Ethiopian locals. J even noticed that on the bus we took were a mother and daughter, a couple fashionable girls, and some intellectual looking guys. In fact, one guy who spoke good English helped us tell the driver where we wanted to be let off. When we got to our destination, we crossed the street and went to Makush Art Gallery and Restaurant, a great spot in downtown Addis to see some local artists' works and have a nice Italian meal. We ordered two vegetable soups, a tagliatelle topped with mushroom and zucchini, and a small spinach & eggplant pizza and then browsed the paintings as we waited for our food to arrive.
