Catching up... [Part 4]

Gamou Gi 2011

Gamou Gi is the big annual celebration that the marabou in Kayemor, Serigne Djim Ndiaye, hosts.  Here is the blog post I wrote about it for 2010.

The 2012 Gamou Gi happened already (May 19), so I'll have to get a post up about that soon, but I don't have nearly as many pictures or video from that event.  

I made a folder in my picasa page with photos and a few videos from the event: https://picasaweb.google.com/116102942817396013841/GamouGi2011?authkey=Gv1sRgCIvd3979ybr8Hw

Here are more videos from the event that I uploaded to YouTube:
