It was New Year in certain parts of India over the weekend. The Bengali festival is called Poila Baishakh, whilst the Tamils celebrate Puthandu. Here in Kerala, the New Year is known as Vishu. There have been a few fireworks, but not much else. People tend to celebrate at home with families and close friends, so no colourful parades to show you, I'm afraid...
The hotel put up a nice display, and there seemed to be a larger number of saris in the sea on the day itself, but that's about it.
Happy Vishu!
