Women's Day and other fun times

We had International Women's Day on Sunday. It basically consisted of the women having their own parade, wear all the same fabric and then a big party all day. Unfortunately the whole thing was directed by men, not women, but we'll let that slide this year.





As we marched down the main street we sang a song a clapped in rhythm.







And then we danced.





I got my hair braided, left it for a couple of days and then took it out, this is the result.





This is a little hike I went on early one morning.





And this is why I get mad props in my village now. "Oh yeah Massaba went all the way to the woods to collect firewood, and then carried it on her head!" Yes, yes I did.

I adore your fuzzy hair.

There's a that's-what-she-said joke happening somewhere RIGHT NOW about wood on your head... hehehe...
