Fanale

Been sick with the fever, but have been taking my paracetamol and ibuprofen, so was functional to go out for our last dinner here. The Waaw Centre is closing for a couple of weeks, and I'll be in Dakar for a few days.

There was a real restaurant buzz tonight at Siki's - more people in town post-Noel? As last time we were the only ones there. Tonight is the annual Fanale. It used to be the procession before Christmas Mass, but now it's on another date, and doesn't have to do with Mass. I also hear the 'procession' is not as neat as it sounds. Possibly more like bleeding through the streets. It starts at midnight, so taking a nap before.
