M.I.A in the song Jimmy to celebrate the Hindu Diwali Festival

Today we celebrated Diwali, a Hindu Festival in the center square of Christchurch. Dancing with the belly dancers and in traditional hindu styles, we tossed around confetti, and swayed to the the drumming rythmes. Here's a clip of some of the hindu dancing styles we saw...

The air smelled of fresh and spicy indian foods, and we had to have a taste of butter chicken. Yum! I think I want to learn to belly Dance! To finish off the show, we had fireworks blasting off the stage, and silvery streamers fell from the sky!
