    ;0So is Onam part of Ramadan? And Is that the month of fasting each day until sundown? Happy Oman, Ramandan and WW :)

      Hindu celebrate Onam
      Muslim celebrate Ramadan

      Sorry for the confusion if any Sukhmandir!

    I Googled Onam for more detail as I’d never heard of it. I found it very interesting. Ramadan I already know all about. I think it so important to learn about other cultures. Intolerance often comes from ignorance and lack of information. So Happy Onam and Ramadan.

    Yeah, this time, Ramzan is coming alongwith Dussherra holidays – little earlier than the previous years. Usually it comes alongwith Diwali. But, holidays are holidays – my best wishes for a super festival holiday to you and your family !!!

    Me too – waiting for the break after exams for the girls !!!

    Shraddha – Sophia had a blast at the Indian Festival and she got to put on a Sari – her favorite part! She said the dancers were the most beautiful she had ever seen! I love showing her how beautiful the world is!
