This picture makes me happy

Guyana, photo by Katie Watkins

     Guyana was fun in so many ways because it's an English-speaking country, but so much still gets lost in cultural translations. I think this photo from Katie Watkins proves that.
     When I lived in Guyana, "Thong Song" came out. Guyanese don't pronounce the "th" sound, so I'd often hear people walking around singing "tong, ta-tong, tong, tong." Gave that ridiculous song a whole new level of joy for me. Thanks for sharing, Katie!
