So I made it! I'm in Guinee!

There is nothing like a reception that involves a lot of dancing and drumming.
Right now I am living in a room that shares a courtyard with an elementary school. In the morning they sing the national anthem and put the flag up and you can here them singing their lessons. Very cute. Our place also has a guardian who is an older man who watches over the property all day to stop robbery and vandalism. He is also very nice and always says "Bonjour Madame, Ca va?"
We have been going to alot of Sabars and doundounba's. I think I prefer the sabar although the dance is way to fast for me but it is much more like dancing at a club than the doundouba.
The other day I danced at a sabar with some local clowns which was pretty funny and gave everyone a good laugh.
Things are going well.
