In honor of Lizzy's coming to Chibempi to stay with Ben and his host family, Ben's host family the Mukukas threw a traditional African dance party. The party was planned for Saturday night (when Lizzy arrived) and the village had been practicing every night of the previous week. Unfortunately, after five hours of dance practice on Saturday the battery for the stereo died and the party had to be delayed until Sunday morning. It was still a great time, and as we have come to realize is pretty typical of Zambian planning.
