    St Georige's Church

    Posted by oldlacer 27 September 2007

    I will treasure the memory of joining the St George's Day celebration in Lalibela. It is impossible to describe the feeling of mingling with the crowds of people, mainly wrapped in white, walking along the deep rock hewn corridors, kicking off the sandals and forcing your way into the church.

    An earlier fantastic memory was walking along the day before and suddenly seeing St Giyorgis sunk into the rock.

    A less pleasant memory was fleas in the carpets of the churches! Do take something for the fleas as they can migrate to the bedding.
