An Inidalicious week

It has been a busy week ...German lessons, painting, the Black Eyed Peas concert, all things Indian and a Springbok win.
We went to the Black Eyed Peas concert on Tuesday night and we loved it....Fergalicious!!!
We stood about 15m from the stage and was able to see it all.
The Dutchess - Shaking that thang.... "And she knows just how to shake it"! She also performed a couple of her solo hits in her very sexy school girl out fit that was sure to make "Big boys cry"...
Will.i. am had the crowd scatting and moving along to his "I got it from my Mama" solo hit...
Vanessa and Brendon

Marc and I had a terrific time and hope that the next band will be as good and hopefully not the usual Scorpions, Deep Purple or Iron Maiden ancient acts.

On Wednesday the OWC attended a "Diwali Fiesta"at the Asian Woman Spa in preparation for India Night on Saturday, 20 October. We entered a garden oasis filled with sweetmeats, colourful bangles, bindis and costume jewellery. The ladies could have their hands painted like a bride with henna, learn how to drape a saree, have their fortunes told as well as enjoy a fashion show and a scrumptious Mughlai buffelt lunch.

I was one of the 5 models that had fun moddeling a Mumbai designers clothing line...kurti's, sarees and evening wear.
Vanessa and I in very detailed and colourful kurti's.
Erika, Kathleen and I in sarees.
The 5 of us ending the show by carrying a plate with a burning flame and rose petals which we tossed into the crowd.
The fortune teller used shells to answer life questions... Very funny!

On Saturday night I got to dress up for "India Night" with my Mehndi painted hands, bangles, tika and nose ring all matching my beaded outfit.

It was an evening of celebrating all things Indian... 120 Guests all dressed in their best Indian wear enjoying food from 5 different regions, bollywood dancing and a Hookah lounge.

And at 11:45pm we were on our way to Jacki and Martin's house to watch SA win the Rugby World Cup. Well done, BOKKE!


The perfect end to a busy week!
