Last night at about 7:30p.m. we heard what sounded like a parade outside of our hotel. We looked out and low and behold we were witnessing a Bengali wedding. Up the road came a horse drawn carriage carrying a groom. He was in the Bengali traditional clothing, (white suit with a black turban) and there were lots of drums and lights. It was quite the celebration!!!
At about 10:30 we were woken by fireworks. We checked out our window and off in the distance we could see the Presidents house all lit up with the fireworks going off there. We later found out on the news that it was the celebration for the India version of American idol.
Today we are headed out to see the Red Fort and a Hindu temple.
Maddie, Auri, and Myles - I haven't forgot surprises!!! My students (don't tell Mr. Finn) but I haven't forgot candy from India. See you later!
