So today at the market, Adam saw a guy that he thought he recognized.... there's a very famous Hair dresser here in our country named Habib... So Adam went up to him and asked if he was Habib... it was pretty obvious that he was because he had an entourage with him :) He said yes, and Adam got his picture with him :)Check out the stylish hair on Habib! He also has a salons in the UK and New York. Check him out! Habib's ... We love meeting "famous" people here, it's so fun :) Our friends here are going to be jealous that we got to meet him! :)
This year, our neighborhood was quite active for Dusshera. At one end of our street, one of the major political parties here, set up a Dusshera celebration. Here are some guys putting the effigies together and filling it full of fireworks! They had quite the political statement for their celebration. (Basically that expensive water, fuel, electricity, diesel, gas, etc and FDI (bringing in foreign companies like Wal-Mart) are like Raverna (the demon god)... and are the evils of today....) Here's their set-up at the end of our street.... you can't see it very well, but they had all three effigies there that they burned.... They burned VERY quickly at this one... So quickly that by the time I pulled out my camera, it was already on the ground!! Our street looked like those CNN videos of rioting cities :) haha!! There was burning stuff all over the street :) Many people will get a piece of the leftover wood/bamboo...
