A Royal Bengal Dinner

For the first night of our spiritual adventure our participants were treated to a lavish Bengali dinner that was held in the Mandarin room at the luxurious Taj Bengal hotel in Kolkata, India. Here are images from this evenings' dinner.

The room is gorgeous....decorated with countless marigold flowers around the room and jasmine running down the center of the table that seated 28 of us.
