Happy Diwali

We just came back from the Durban Diwali festival! As most of you will know, Durban has the biggest Indian community in the whole of Africa and therefore Diwali is something you almost can't miss out on here! Last night Durban beachfront lit up with stunning fireworks to celebrate "the festival of lights" and today our little Hazel enjoyed the fact that during Diwali, all the celebrants wear new clothes and share sweets and fruit with each other :) In the pics you see her wearing her new dress and she got all sorts of delicious things offered all the time - from arms full of fresh fruit (pineapple with masala on a stick - yummy) to freshly squeezed sugarcane juice!
