In twelve hours time I should be about to board a plane for Dar es Salam on the way to Zanzibar – so … nothing much to say except I hope you all have a lovely Christmas, good new year and lots of rest, bracing walks, wine or what ever it takes in between. I should be back in Ethiopia on January 2nd with photos of sun, sand, palm trees ……………to prove it - whoops I promised I would not try to make you jealous! - sorry.

Happy Christmas everyone.
