Asmara Eritrea - May 23rd 2006
The eve of Independence Day
2006. Cultural dancers and singers performing on various stages in the
main street of Asmara. Thousands of people dancing on the streets to
celebrate Eritrea's number one National Holiday.
Nicest memory: "Hey, you are
the guy that made the web pages telling about our country". Mary, an Eritrean
woman from the United States visiting her beloved motherland with her
fiancé John, recognized me from last years pictures. Makes me proud,
and even more happy on this very special evening that I am sharing
with the Eritrean people..
At 0:00 there is - like very
year - the fireworks, the national anthem, and the president passing the
celebrating crowd.
