Bahir Dar-Ghion Hotel

December 23, 2006

I returned from the falls, tired and ready for shower. I was called in to speak with the manager. He said, "I think you need to leave today." I asked why and he said that he needed the room. I told him that I had reserved the room for three nights- I was going to stay another night. He insisted that I had to leave. I told him that if he made me leave I wouldn't pay for the previous few nights… he sent a young boy to tell me I have to leave- sp I packed my bags and left! Unfortunately there was a conference in town that weekend whichh made finding a room difficult. Finally I found a room- whichh was nicer and less expensive!

That night I was out at a traditional bar with Wondemagen, a friend of my friend from Addis. The receptionist sat down next to me insisting that I pay him right then. Drama, drama. Finally he left. In the mornign I returned to pay the bill. The manager was apologetic- I paid. Never
