Celebrating New Year
There was this gentleman with what looked like some kind of powder or ash all over his place. I asked the guide what was he doing?
Apparently, celebrating New Year’s! New Year’s celebration carries on thru the second weekend of January here. Drinking alcohol is permitted. (Kava needs no permission of course).
“So, what is it that he has put on his face?” I asked
“Powder”
“What kind of powder?”
“Talcum powder”
“Wow!”
