Dimma Cultural Restuarant in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia

What an amazing night!  New teachers from ICS were treated to a traditional Ethiopian meal while being entertained by musicians and dancers.  They represented people from the different regions of Ethiopia.  Many teachers got up and were able to dance on stage.  What fun and the food was delicious!  I took a couple of videos and they are at the bottom of the page.

Here is a link to Dimma:
