Wedding in Khartoum, Sudan

The end Ramadan is the start of a multi-day party of family visits and food. This makes it a good time to also get married, since everyone is in town and in a festive mood.

These pictures are another example of how Sudan isn’t your normal “arab” country. First notice that I spent a lot of time back in the kitchen area with the women, a big no-no in the middle east, and then notice the co-ed dancing. Though the rain tried to put an end to our party it lasted all the way to the 11 o’clock curfew.
