WAIST or the West Africa Invitational Softball Tournament. This was how we all spent our 3-day President’s Weekend in Dakar. There was some softball involved but mostly there was lots of time spent at the pool at the American Club, food, drinks, and parties. Practically every volunteer from Senegal was there and several West African countries Peace Corps’ sent teams as well. Our team was a combination of Tambacounda region and Kedougou region, forming ‘Tambagou’ and this year our theme was cops and robbers. I didn’t bring my camera to WAIST because I was sure I’d lose it, but here’s some photos I got from my friends, sift around on their blog links for other photos of the weekend too! Oh, yeah, I was the Hamburglar! ( I made the costume from scratch, I’m pretty amazing like that, and short-shorts is part of our theme every year)
Jessica (as a Banana Ballerina), Mika, Ari, and me the Hamburglar!
So a Banana and a Hamburglar walk into a bar...
