Mawazine music

Alex and I just met up with some 1 and 2 year Peace Corps Volunteers to see a band on the Atlantic Coast of Rabat after drinking some delicious sweet mint tea.  We listened to Staff Bendi Bilili, a band of musicians from the Congo crippled by Polio...they were fantastic, energizing, and great to dance to.  Here's a few songs to check out:

Time to get some sleep as USAID workshops start early tomorrow...it's going to be interesting learning our other boss's expectations...
