TAM TAM

Today we had a huge Tam Tam party at the training center for all of the
home stay families. Tam Tam is a drum found here in Senegal. They play
6 or 7 drums at the same time all with different beats. Its quite
amazing. You should see how the ladies here dance. Its crazy to think
the human body moves in such a way. They danced up a storm, too. They
even let me and a few of my friends play along for a song. It sounded
amazing. My friend Charlie and I talked to the guy and he offered to
give us Tam Tam lessons. So every Friday until we leave for our
prospective villages, we'll rock hard on the African beats.
