HAPPY HOLY 2017
Hello everyone!
HAPPY HOLY!
Holi is the festival of colors in India. Every year in March at the last full moon, when everybody becomes covered in bright colors in order to welcome springtime, the huge social gap seems to disappear. Rich and poor men and women, children and the elderly are united in celebration. They throw colorful powder and water at each other as a symbol of happiness for the coming spring. It´s a magical and spiritual moment full of happiness and fun accompanied by music and dancing. You will see bonfires as a symbol of triumph of good against evil. Our children enjoy this event very much. Afterwards we have lots of clothes hanging out to dry and we don´t have a washing machine J
I don´t care, I´m simply very happy for them!
Good bye with a HAPPY HOLY and see you later!
