After a slow start because of some stupid coupon fuel document that has to be issued by the government in order to buy fuel, we started a comfortable drive up the mountain to Asmara. When we came to the place were we supposedly should have seen some spectacular scenery down towards the capitol, we were welcomed by a wall of zero visibility fog. The minute we drove into the city centre the sun decided to show up after all. Then it was time for us to celebrate a new capitol with some delicious Italian pizza.

I am also happy to present a PDF document from Johan Bergqvist, his thoughts and pictures can be found by clicking on this link: Johan in English. Johan has also written in Swedish which can be found here, if you are not able to read Swedish, you can enjoy his pictures on the same pages.
