Dira Dawa

Dira Dawa is the second most populated city in Ethiopia.  The city emerged in 1902 with the construction of a railroad to connect the Port Of Djibouti to the capital city of Addas Abbaba, Ethiopia.  Dira Dawa is a predomintely Muslim community with several busy markets...during a layover, we set off in a tricycle taxi for a look around;

Washen was our taxi driver and at the end of our visit we stopped by the house to meet his Mom & Dad.  A family picture was taken with the intent to drop off a printed copy when we return for display in thier home.
