Sorry for the late post guys!
Day six (Thursday) was a busy one; we went shopping for dresses for the festivals! It was so amazing, all the colours and fabrics – it was hard to know what to get. I ended up with two salwar suits, a long tunic top and the long baggy (almost harem pant) trousers. We got the bus back at 7pm and grabbed dinner – which was delicious, Indian style pancakes stuffed with potatoes and veg! After dinner we decided to play dress up…funny as it was, lots of laughter, I had my usual problem…one top did not go over my boobs – I squeezed into the other for a photograph! The trousers are huge and fall down; the top will not go below my armpits!
Luckily Hannah and I decided to go get a bottle of water from the café style place on campus, we met students there and got chatting, they are so sweet and helpful, Chetam, one of the guys from the jewellery course here, has offered to do our henna tomorrow morning and then take us back to the shopping district and sort out our clothes!! (Hannah’s makes her look slightly…err…manly!)
I am looking forward to all the preparations for the festival (which starts tomorrow night) and photographing the market tomorrow.
Hannah has taken some photos of us, so I will get them off her later to upload!
Tomorrow will be another late post I am afraid, as the dancing will not finish until 1am, so will not be back to PG campus until 2 or 3am.
But will get things up asap!
Much love,
