| A day in Rajasthan, India, about one week ago |
|
 | Joella: It sure is beautiful out here in the Rajasthani desert. So peaceful, so vast, quiet and spacious
| |
|
| Indian friend: Oh yes, but you just wait until tonight my friend. It is wedding season and the celebrations are quite extravagant... | |
|
|
|
|
|
| Evening arrives
The wedding processions begin |
|
| Joella: Oh my oh my! This is intense! Never did I expect to see fireworks, elephants, streamers, music, dancing, cows, dogs, buffets for thousands, streamers and such excitement out here
.all in one place! | |
|
| Friend: Us Indians sure do love to dance, dance, dance! This is the joy of life sister, come join in the celebrations of love... | |

|
| Flash forward to the present, in Australias south west region |
|
| Joella: Well India sure is incredible mamma! Yet I must say, nothing quite compares to this pristine land that we call home... | |
|
| Mum: Yes darling, I dont think you will find any Indian men riding on white horses out here. India sure does know how to put on a good show! | |
