As we drove around Bamako today, we saw our neighbors preparing for the big Tabaski fete tomorrow. Sheep and rams are everywhere, tethered in front of most compounds. Some delivered grass or tree branches to families who fed a last meal to the animals who would be sacrificed in the morning. Excitement is in the air here. It’s good the rams don’t know what lies ahead.
