They've Got the Beat

I could hear the rhythmic beating from half a mile away. It was so beautiful and inviting that I just had to look for the source. The search finally led me to this effervescent group of musicians, their fingers pounding out mesmerizing rhythms on these African drums. It was such a festive atmosphere and many of those around couldn't help but stomp their feets and dance to the beat! Really fun!
