Party Time

It's getting close to party time (new year's eve). My last time in Ethiopia I stayed in a hotel in the center of Addis Ababa. Every Wednesday and Friday there would be a party for children from the ages of maybe 14 to 17. These parties would take place from 12pm noon to 6pm at night. So obviously these children were skipping school to party.

If you're having images of Ethiopian children doing Eskesta and Guragigna all day, think again, these parties were straight up hip hop, r&b, and reggae.
