The Rift Valley

From Harar in the East, we came back towards the center and South to the most Southern Region of Ethiopia to the resort town of Hwassa (Awasa, depending who you ask).  Hwassa is located on a similarly named lake that is one of a stream of lakes that follow the African Rift Valley.  Lake Awasa is a get away for people escaping the rush of Addis Ababa.  People come to eat the tilapia, feel the warm breeze, and relax.  The town has the feeling of a beach town and is a nice escape after the stress of the North or the dust of the East.



Massive storks just chillin.
