(Jan. 28) To finish off our grand week of holidays, we celebrated the feast day of Saraswati. She is the goddess of a whole bunch of things including education, something very close to the hearts of many Indians. Consequently, everyone goes puja crazy. We threw on some saris (minus Drew, naturally) and girded our loins for some double puja madness. The day consisted of eating, making new friends, eating, making awkward conversation, eating, attempting to repeat something the priest mumbled while feebly throwing flowers at a statue, eating, and trying to convince servers that we wanted ABSOLUTELY NO MORE FOOD.
Wouldn't have it any other way.
