We had our big Duwali party. Who were those people?
Anyway, it was great fun and we enjoyed everything about it. Here are some snaps.
^ We have our patio in good order, finally. Thanks to Matt and Jo for the help on the Arabesque awning.
^ Kids were invited. They were occupied with Om Shanti Om, a recent Bollywood hit that we own.
^ All of the people wearing Indian outfits gathered for a photo. I tell you, few things make a photograph more beautiful than having Danes as a centerpiece!
^ Crackers and sparklers galore.... Notice Sam being carried away from the explosives as he said, "But they're not dangerous.... NOT AT ALL!"
^ Aidan (the other one) said it all - when all was said and done, it was time to sleep.
^ But not before Tara and I had a deeply American hour after the party with the melodious sounds of Ms. Alison Krauss, Lynyrd Skynyrd and our coon hound, Ashoka.
Overall, a great time was had by all.
