Sulukule

Sadly, it is raining heavily and there is no sign to stop soon and the singers invited to give performance only have a short stay. The whole thing seems would been ruined by the rain but surprisingly, to drummers from the community began to beat the drums and others dancing follow the rhythm.

They walk along the street and everyone hear the beat follows them. We walk with them as well and take pictures along the way to the wall. Although the celebration has been canceled by the formal organizer, this informal dancing party take place of it and last for over one and an half hour in the rain.


I think everyone’s emotion there has been promoted by the drummer and dancer from the community, one of the famous trumpeter plays with them, all journalists and tourists keep on taking pictures and we BUDDies all join the dancing with the kids and drum is still beet our heart on our way home.
