Festival of Colors

 Saturday I took Adam to the Krishna temple festival of colors.   There were hundreds of people and just walking on the street to the temple we got pelted with colored "chalk".   

At 1:00 pm they did a countdown and people threw the colors into the air.  The rest of the time though everybody was throwing color on each other and even on random strangers.  It was a lot of fun.

Adam had a bandanna and safety glasses to keep "chalk"out of his mouth and eyes.  He was fine though because it wasn't chalk.  It was more like flour and was soft and very fine.

Since Adam's head wasn't covered with a hat his blonde hair become a favorite target of people around us.  

We each had a different color.  Adam was Green, Katy was Pink, Matt was Purple,  Briette was Yellow and I was Orange

Adam thought it was super cool because he's
normally supposed to stay clean but that day he was
expected to get as messy as possible.  He loved it!   

Adam had color in just about every nook and cranny.  He apparently got pelted real good behind his right ear with some pink.  

This is a pic of us leaving.  It was a surreal scene because to the right there was a long line of  multicolored people leaving and to the left a long line of clean white shirts ready for the next color throwing.

We decided to take my car because it is a beater and I figured the color could only improve it.  

It was a fun day
