Happy Belated Phagwah

The Phagwah parade was this past Sunday in Queens. It's a very celebratory Hindu holiday and people participate by throwing a lot of colorful powder and dyed water all over each other. Luckily it wasn't freezing out because somehow I ended up getting a bottle of grape soda dumped on me at some point. Wild. Anyway, here are before and after photos. You can find the rest on Facebook. And yeah, I know I look kinda like a dude. But I had to wear clothes I wouldn't miss.
