its the day of the eid al adha celebrating Abraham's almost sacrficie of Ishmael in the Quranic version. I think every French soldier in Djibouti is in the downtown right now. this is the largest number of white people i've seen here. yesterday there were several sheep in my apartment building. this morning they were all slaughtered. there was some blood on the steps today which was special.
in other exciting news i cleaned my whole apartment today including the toilet, the shower, and i even mopped.
Interesting observance! I had never heard of it. And well done on the cleaning. I'm overdue.
