Happy Diwali!

Im back.. after a hiatus ..but hey, am still posting :)

Happy Diwali to all you folk out there.. To those who read my blog, and to those who dont too!

We went to see a fireworks display at the RSI. The sky was alit in hues of red, yellow, blue and green and gasps of wonder puncuated the roar as the night came alive with the spirit of Diwali. I love the sight of people in colorful ethnic clothes with sparkling 'phuljhadis' in their hands ( specially the ones which emit green light!) and the peals of laughter ringing all around. The enthusiasm is infectious! What a wonderful festival indeed!

The only one who seemed to think otherwise is my dear dog Casper! Every 'boom' of a cracker bursting saw him diving under the bed for cover! I guess he thinks the sky is falling on his head! Poor fellow..

Meanwhile, I'm off to eat some more sweets and revel in the celebrations :)
