Return to Mali

Settling in at the Djembe Hotel. I am excited to see everyone again!
Jeremy & Tewah have a new addition to their family--son Alex, now a year old. There are some other changes to the place. A fantastic new gazebo for taking lessons under!! A luxury. I feel right at home here and in my new "studio".


The first day was spent getting organized, trying to overcome jet lag, and picking up a few things at the market. Day 2~ I am ready to start with lessons!
Dance & drum class will be with Oumou Mariko & Drissa Kone. I ask them to start with helping me prepare for the wedding ceremonies I will go to here, so we do Maraca & Suku.
