After eating another delicious sheep meal at my counterpart's house, we headed off to the Lamido Palace. The Lamido is the traditional chief here in Ngaoundere and though the palace isn't too large, the shows during the holidays are very grandiose!
Crowd waiting for the show to start with everyone wearing traditional Muslim clothing

Faces in the crowd
The Lamido, Ngaoundere's traditional chief. To salute him, you must fist pump with both hands!
The "Fantasia" horse show
Adorable kids in their party outfitsLater that evening, I had, yes, meals at three more houses! Though I naturally have a small appetite, I was able to pass on some food to the little guy below.

That horse show looks bad ass. Nothing like a meal of lam before the lamido festival.
