The India festival was quite glorious!

So today Allison and I went to an India festival held in our hometown. It was actually really interesting, considering I have no expirience with Indian culture whatsoever. I couldn’t eat any of the food as my allergies would not permit it, but we watched some awesome dancing, Sitar playing, and got Henna tattoos. Would you like to see some pictures?

We painted traditional Diwali candle holders (or something like that). The top two belong to Allison and the bottom two are mine.

Check out the crazy tattoo...

Allison gets tatooified!

You know it was bound to happen...

My Henna tattoo (and Billiam the glitter-filled ball) before it chipped off. Now it's pretty and orange!

India has such a gorgeous culture. The traditions, the dances, the music, the clothing, the food… everything is so amazing. Here in America we have burgers, booty shorts, and Soulja Boy. Fascinating, eh? Has anyone here ever been to India? If so, I want to hear all about it. It sounds like an amazing place.
