Holi Hai!
Some of you may know the festival of Colors that is celebrated here in India, mainly it is a celebration of spring. In the north of India the celebrations are huge, here in the south a little more reserved. In other words, we didn't have to worry about someone knocking on our door in the morning, or sneaking into our house to drag us out and throw colored water, or dry colors at us. We were expected instead to show up at the appointed time and place to throw color and water at each other at one time. Lots of fun! The kids had a great time throwing water at us and their friends. We had a number of friends very excited to have us participate, and we had a great time getting colored and wet. I couldn't get as many pictures as I would have liked because it was too wet for a camera, but here is a video and I will post a few pictures in the next day or so. I wish you could see in the video how really colored and wet we are, but it misses out a little.
