What an amazing adventure! It's so refreshing to see something positive about "Africa" on reddit for once. Most of the time it is just plagued by stories of war, poverty, crime and starvation, which are obviously very real and serious issues, but Africa has so much more to offer!
I think if people just took the opportunity to go visit and see for themselves, they would realise Africa is a very diverse an wonderful continent with so much to see and experience!
Having partially grown up in Ethiopia and Kenya, I just cannot wait to get back!

Not that it is important in the scope of things, but it might be interesting to know that the official language of Ethiopia is called Amharic and it is one of the most difficult languages to learn.
Glad you are all physically ok and I hope you can recover quickly from the shock. I have flow that exact route so many times myself, the last time less than a month ago, so it somehow feels like that could just as well have been me on that flight which is a scary thought.
