Ethiopian 767 Lands on Bole Road in Addis Ababa?


If you're driving to Bole International Airport or the Millenium Conference Center in Addis Ababa, you'll definitely encounter this "767" touching
down in traffic. The London Cafe is across Bole Road from the conference center. The bar is enshrouded in a gigantic, inflatable replica of an Ethiopian Airlines 767.





It's a tourist attraction and advertising for the airline. Fun concept ...


But notice the armed soldiers and street beggars outside. Those are the realities of life in Ethiopia.
Bole Road is the major commercial strip that connects Bole International Airport and the Millenium Conference Hall to downtown Addis Ababa. The mountains that surround Addis Ababa are in the background.
