Saturday is Diwali, which is like New Year's for Hindus and tonight we went to the (country) club that the family I live with belongs too. We wore our fanciest clothes (note that I still really need to buy a sari), watched fireworks, had a drink, ate good food, and danced. I ate some roti (grilled wheat flour) and dal (lentils). Its kind of hard to be a vegan in India, everyone who is a vegetarian here eats a lot of milk and cheese. We also had our pictures taken by the news, so we'll probably be in the paper, again....

(the dance floor. I had to climb onto the DJ's stage to take a picture, but they didn't seem to mind.)As you can see, it was a lot of fun
