| It's an impromptu midnight (1am,2am,3am,4am,5am) parade of celebration! |
At midnight on July 9th we went out to the streets to celebrate with the people of Juba, the new capital of the new country. There was cheering, and hugging, singing, and dancing. We stayed up celebrating until about 3 am. The next morning we walked six kilometers in the blazing heat with tens of thousands of people to the Garang Memorial Site....Now three days later I am awake long enough to post a few photos, but not yet awake enough to truly blog about the excitement. You'll have to wait for Luke's forthcoming thoughts on that one.

Can't wait for Luke's blog and want more? There's about 30 more photos of the night/day celebrations in our web album!
Can't wait for Luke's blog and want even more? Heather wrote blog about the birth of South Sudan
