Party time at Sobha Aquamarine

This was a party held Saturday night for the whole complex. This picture doesn't show much of the party--the dancing is in the background which you can't see. All the women and children wore their best outfits and a dinner was served. The DJ played dance music at full blast til 11:30 pm. I felt a little intrusive so i didn't get close-up shots. Although one neighbor (in the green and orange saree) was nice and asked me to come dance:). There were lights strung up all over the trees and bushes and the outfits were so colorful. The sad part is this was a party honoring two goddesses. Hindus celebrate many religious festivals and worship many gods/idols (a term they use). The largest festival will be coming up in November--the festival of lights. It lasts for 10 days I believe. The children are often off of school for a religious holiday. Please pray that many Hindus will know the Truth and be able to have an eternal party! Side note: yes, the "snow" (dust) is still in the air:)
