The entire city goes all out and they don't use baby powder (which, mixed with water and dye just make things sticky!). Queens was pretty awesome but still confined to the park. Holi festival in India is definitely on my list of things to do before I die. Yeah, afterwards we all went home and looked at photos of the festival in India.

Holi Festival is one of Those Things on my Life List. I thought I'd have to go to India to see it.... but of course, I should have looked for something in Queens! [palm slaps forehead] Your photos make me even more determined to find some place to celebrate next year! Ahh, I’m so jealous! Holi Festival is one of Those Things on my Life List.

We parked a few blocks away, so our car was fine. We brought extra clothes to change into and Andrew and Mayra ended up wearing garbage bags on the ride home. But when we got back to Brooklyn, we definitely got some curious stares from pedestrians when we stopped at lights. (It didn't help that Andrew looked like Lord Sith with his bright red face.) I also had to wash my hair about 15 times to get everything off. Totally worth it all and would do it again next year in a heartbeat! @Jocelyn. You finally made it onto my blog. Congrats! @Molly.
