It may be Easter weekend but...

...when we're not at church, we'll be at a Jain wedding. Tonight Tom and Edith attended the Ras Garba, named for a type of circular dance popular in Gujarat. Apparently Edith was fascinated by the clothes, the music, and the henna-decorated hands. Here she is with the bride, a good friend of Tom's.

Alas, the party was operating on what the hosts referred to as IST, and Edith fell asleep long before the sticks came out! We've now missed dinner two nights in a row, too, since we've had to leave by 10pm and there was no sign of food coming out that early. Did I say something about leaving our freer selves behind?

Same thing happened at Rupal's wedding, as I recall -- everything was behind schedule and took forEVER. Guess there's something to IST... :) It was all fun though.
