Off to Gondar, just 185 km away with a stop at the Finger of God a solid bit of rock poking straight upwards .... Or was Devil's Nose Rock, is a basaltic monolith or hoodo.
Just before Gondar, it was a short stop below Guzara Castle built for Emperor Sarsa Dengal in 1571-72.
Checked into Fasil Lodge which is located really handy to the centre of town just a short walk away.
Dinner was a half yebege Agelegel 50 birr / NZ$3.30 / US$2.45 plus their local Castel beer 22 birr / NZ$1.50 / US$1.10.
