Holi, a Hindu holiday celebrates the triumph of good over evil and commemorates the end of the darkness, or Winter and the start of Spring and color. Observed in South Asia, young people dance in the streets and throw powdered paint and water on each other. We happen to be here in Pokhara, Nepal during Holi, and joined in the fun. It was a really joyous happy day and the main Lakeside street of Pokhara was shut down to traffic and there were many stages that played loud Nepalese rock music while the raucous young crowd jumped and sang along.

We met Shai and Noa, father and daughter traveling for a month in India and Nepal and our children quickly joined forces to play Holi in the streets with other children.


You can see the young man coming towards me with yellow on his hands that ended up all over my face.
