Greetings friend, family, and random blog visitors.
Please excuse my lack of blogging. I promise that sometime this weekend I will have a (hopefully) thrilling account of my first week in Dire Dawa to share with you. Until then, please enjoy the photo.
This is how they transport camels around here when camels aren't busy doing the transporting. I'm not quite sure how I imagined a camel transport to look, but this certainly amuses me. Also, rumour has it the camels are lifted on and off the truck by crane! Sounds crazy, right? I'm still imaging how this works. What do you think?
And no, while it may appear so, I am not hiding behind a ticket of buses. I'm enjoying a post-lunch macchiatto on the porch of Blossom Hotel. Although on second thought, it would be rather spy-like to photograph camel transports on my mobile photo from the cover of some shrubbery.

Do you think the Greek donkeys are transported in a similar manner when not moving tourists up mountainsides?
i bet folks from dire dawa probably think cattles trailers would be a crazy way of transporting animals too. remember your youngest bro loves you! (i bet the other ones do to)
Hi stephanie - a/s/l? Great question about Greek donkeys btw... i typically see cohorts of donkeys transported in SUVs in-and-around st.george/cambridge SW ON area.
