Wodaabe Wedding Dance



Yesterday some Woodabe friends of ours invited us to watch them do a traditional Wodaabe wedding dance. In this dance, it is the men who get all dressed up, decorate their faces and do the singing and dancing. It was an amazing experience to watch. We all sat on mats on the sand, watching as the men did their elaborate preparations and then danced. The women sat and worked on their hand sewing. We were made so welcome and enjoyed it very much!
