A common way people get around in
Ethiopia, donkey driven cart. You'd often
see lines of them, like this one, going down
the road.

The dryer part of Ethiopia, just south of
Addis Ababa.

Mothers and their children waiting to get
food at the nutrition program held each
Thursday afternoon. Each child is weighed
to see if their weight gain is normal and
the family receive a set amount of food.
Usually, milk and flour along with a few
other things.

A view of the area around Dilla. A rather
lush environment.
