For the first time we visited the Hare Krishna Temple in Spanish Fork Utah to celebrate the coming of spring. "Holi" is an India tradition celebrating the beginning of spring, the festival includes wonderful traditional dishes from India to eat, music all day, tours of the temple, and of course the trowing of color. The bright color is made from a chalk like substance and is available for purchase on site. While attending the festival attendees are encouraged to hug one and other is permission is given and spread color around, then every 2 hours they count down and throw the color in the air. It was a crazy experience and will be a festival we will attend yearly. The kids had a blast and being able to experience this with their cousins. However the only down fall to attending this festival is the cleanup. Enjoy the pics and defiantly check out the video, it is amazing.
