Irawq Village Life 5 - visit to a hut

Pouring the "energy drink"
 We have a chance to visit a local hut and hear about typical life in the village.  We are also dressed up in traditional garb.  Our hosts are Martin and "Mama".  Martin did a great job explaining and he really liked to talk.  He called all the women "Mama."

The energy drink is a beer made with corn, millet and sorgrum.  Very bitter/horrible.

All the women on the tour try on a traditional wrap and turban.
