Today is Independence Day here in Senegal. I marched in the grand parade with the jam ladies. It was fantastically fun. After all of the time getting ready and an hour standing waiting to march, the actual parade in front of all the dignitaries was about 10 minutes long. I think the last time I was in a parade was girl scouts or when I twirled the baton or something a very very long time ago. Everyone from all the surrounding villages was in Oussouye and even the King was out for the festivities.
