I did a little extra walking to dinner this evening so I could see some of the lights that people have put out for Tihar. I also wanted to see and hear the small groups of singers that stroll around singing traditional Nepali Hindu songs. I was surprised that all the groups that I saw were little kids. It really did seem like Halloween, but with Christmas lights and without spooky costumes.
I also saw a lot of little displays on the sidewalks and driveways, again many drawn by little kids. Many of them made a path to the doors of the adjacent homes and businesses.
And yes, there are firecrackers. Not Oakland on New Years level but enough to startle the dogs....
