Coaster in Juba

Let's take a break from the Rwandan blog posts. What say you if we head over to Juba, South Sudan for a little snippet of life there.

Normally, we place a coaster under a glass to protect the table top underneath, from the unsightly condensation marks or scratches. Here in Juba, this is how it is done. A coaster is place over the glass instead.

Why?

It is to shield the glass (very important) and the beer (even more important) from the millions and millions of flies buzzing around, annoyingly!
