Sammie the Sheep

Eid al-Adha"Festival of Sacrifice"is a religious festival celebrated by Muslims worldwide to commemorate the willingness of Ibrahim to sacrifice his son Ishmael as an act of obedience to God. However, God provided a ram in place once Ibrahim demonstrated his willingness to follow God's commands.

Sammie is the Sheep that our guard brought to spend the night in our compound before it was sacrificed the next day. We decided that Sammie should have some photos to remember its last night.

We went to several national's homes to visit and eat with them. I have spared you guys the photos that would have been too much to handle. I have a picture of me using a motar and pastel to grind up garlic.
