A Tanzanian Wedding

on Tuesday, November 08, 2011
A wedding I attended with my host family during training.

The thing was outside under a canopy of lights.

I just followed these two women around with a camera while they were dancing because they were awesome.

    Interesting.. handkerchiefs in use while dancing. Just as in Greece!

    As I may have posted sometimes.. the folklore in various parts of the world is often alike. A sort of common thread running through ? If one has time, could it be a good subject to research fully?
