The shadows are lengthening, and the meat is nearly all sold.

Stallholders ever eager to serve you.

Later you may visit Tana’s famous steps, with 100s of traders lining the way.

Very harsh. Bet you never knew where sand came from.

Houses cling precariously to the inclines.

Jacaranda, they are called.

A day to lie back and admire the Lord’s creation.

And entertainment for the children.

And dancing too.

It is independence day.
