February 25th-26th, 2015 - Yabelo, Ethiopia

A couple of good days of cycling despite the lack of roads and roads under construction.  Had a rest day in Yabelo.  Didn't do much, took a blue donkey taxi into town and wandered around for a couple of hours.


Rough road to start the day


New road but not quite finished. It was fun, but a bit of an obstacle course.


Another busy village


Typical countryside in southern Ethiopia


Termite mound, as tall as a tree. They are at least equally as big underground.


Typical fence in the area


Many herds of camels along the road or in the fields.  They are extremely funny to watch.  Apparently, they are worth about $1,500 each and are used for camel milk and meat.


Green scenery and just a goat.


 More dirt road but it is smooth and fun to ride on.
