There is a HAPPENIN' Party going on next door.

I guess one of the neighbor kids is having a birthday. They have been cranking out the dance tunes since about 7:00 and they are still going at it. I just hope they put the kiddies to bed and wind down before midnight!

A couple of months ago some of our African colleagues showed us how to do a proper Jola dance. The more energetic parts remind me a lot of exercises I used to do with track team at 5:30 in the morning, and they require at least as much coordination! So far that is the only time I have gotten to do any African dancing but I have gotten in on a couple of Scottish dances since I got here which are at least as much fun.
