My Gomiss was "tailor-made for me"

Hello again!! First and foremost, thanks to everyone for the concerns about me regarding the child sacrifices and mudslides here in Uganda...I am ok!!
A few weeks ago, I attended my first Ugandan wedding! Earlier that week, my host mom took me to a local tailor to get measurements for my gomiss, the traditional Ugandan dress!! We picked up the gomiss on Friday, and I wore it to the wedding that Saturday! It is pretty awesome :) The wedding and reception were a total of NINE hours...wow! But it was a lot of fun!

I'll load a pic of me in my gomiss on facebook. feel free to laugh. :)
