Jane and I are taken to a large building on the far side of "campus." Maybe 200 people are there for the celebration. Parents and high school students and elementary school students and members of the community. The greeting when we enter the hall is mind-blowing. We are seated on a large stage, looking out at the crowd.
And then the entertainment begins. Poems are performed. Original songs and performed. Speeches are given. All of them, literally, are amazing. See it for yourself...
The Celebration
After the ceremony, we are treated to a feast with maybe twenty community members, including the village chief...What an amazing way to start Day 1 of our trip!
