Holi Moley! Holi Cow! Holi Smoke!

This past Sunday was the day of Holi, a Hinu festival celebrating spring with bright colours. Wikipedia states Holi is:

1. A Hindu festival, held in the spring, in which people throw coloured powders at each other during noisy street celebrations.

We were invited to a colleagues Holi party, we were given the proper welcome which included a smear of colours to our faces. We'll let the photos do the talking. Ben still has multicoloured hair and we both have stained finger nails.

 Even our cat Gabby played Holi

So did Vandana's dog, April

 And of course, we did too!

Every colour imaginable

Ben, Vedika, Ajay and Vandana - looking rather Avatar-like

Dancing with the villages

The men were out full force!
