Diwali with The Singh's

We have just arrived in JHB, well to be exact, Rustenberg.
But on Wednesday night Ryan decided we had to go and take pictures of the Diwali fireworks. At first, I was not impressed. I had to pack and iron and sort issues out before JHB but after having one of the most memorable experiences of my 2011, I was only to happy to have got to bed at 2am.

We found a beautiful home in Umhlanga decorated with lights and a backdrop of fireworks.
After being caught by the eldest daughter for taking photo's, we were invited into Mr and Mrs Singh's home.
Greeted with sweet meat eats on a silver tray, invited into the prayer room to witness the prayer, blessed afterwards and stayed on for the amazing fireworks.

The Singh family are amazing people and I would like to thank them for their wonderful hospitality, friendliness and allowing us into their home to share Diwali and explain the actual meaning of the celebration.
