Ok, this is very good to know right now because I was going to spend Sat, Sunday and Monday in Addis before heading north by bus to Bahir on the 9th.
Now this opens up another question. If I arrive on the 6th and then on the 7th very early arrive at the bus station to LEAVE Addis and head for Bahir, will the buses be running on Sunday?
