You know you're in Africa when.... part 2

A little herd of My Little Ponies.

Anything looks out of the ordinary?

Check out the middle two ponies...

Styling your hair into tiny little plats is African tradition. You will see little girls with hair in plats, old ladies with hair in plats and also hair extension in little plats.

And My Little Ponies in tiny plats, courtesy of our nanny Lucy.

How funny! We have friends from Papa new Guinea and they also do these little plaits (usually with extensions).
