Made it to Ethiopia

Ethiopia you say? That's not where I'm supposed to be. It's on the wrong side of the continent!

Unfortunately our plane in Germany had issues with its de-icing system (discovered during taxi) and the flight was cancelled - /after/ sitting on the aircraft for 5 hours during the attempted fix. So it was either sleep in the terminal (Immigration wouldn't grant a transit visa for Penn so we could leave on another flight the following day) or route through Ethiopia. All in all, a 17-hour addition to the 38 planned.

But we /did/ arrive just in time for the sunrise:

Almost makes it worth it...

Almost.
