ramayan

here are pictures of the ramayan i went to a few weeks ago. they are completely out of order, but a good and colorful representation of the day and night.



the women after the program



the men drinking grog and singing after the service

two girls wearing salwar kameez



archana and i



during the program (prayer service)

arti

cooking all day

all the poori

helping/learning how to make poori

everyone

shareen and i

the women taking a break from cooking and eating some lunch

david and i after i got all dolled up by shareen and archana

greta and i (my hair is drenched in coconut oil!)

cuties

and these aren't from the ramayan, but i thought i'd put them up anyway. they're my neighbor girls that come over a few days a week and hang out (and eat all my guavas!)
