| Nothing like a bonfire to bring happiness on a winter night! |
 |
| The Lohri festivities start with a prayer... |
 |
| ...followed by the distribution of prashad (offering) |
Lohri is the winter harvest festival, and the typical rabi crops make their appearance in the Lohri prashad.
 |
| Peanuts, seasame, corn, jaggery, and puffed rice make up the prashad |
 |
| Of course, there is always the one hungry kid who can't wait until the prayers are said :) :) (sneaking a few early mouthfuls of prashad) |
 |
| We go around the fire in a parikrama and make offerings to the flame |
 |
| And what's a celebration without a lot of drums and dancing!! |
 |
| HAPPY LOHRI EVERYONE! MAY YOU HAVE A WONDERFUL 2013! |

Why dont you dislay your rates for the different tours. In this way we can know if we can afford it. I know your tours are good. Great reviews I must add. Many thanks.
