It is Friday night

Afro-Latin rhythms float lazily between the tall palm trees on a humid breeze, like the waves lapping the Mozambican shores.  Every obscure little tavern becomes a hive of activity filled with sweaty human forms, swaying to the passionate beat under the starlit African sky.

 

Suddenly an eerie silence descends upon this small East African coastline.  A total power black-out, again... it is as if the whole nation is holding its breath.

 

The minutes drag by.  Then a faint cheer starts from the South and moves like a Mexican wave through the darkness to the North and in its wake, lights start to flicker on.  The power is back… now Friday night can go on.
