Phase 2 is a little shorter than expected as the season has ended, so things are packing up. The rains also arrived with me! The monsoon not s'posed to arrive 'til June, but it has rained heavily everyday, and is thereore very hot and humid. Not beach weather
My camera card has picked up a virus this morning, and I have no safe facilities to sort it. The photos are still there (mostly) but I wont risk posting anymore until I find somewhere safer. Probably not India!!!
I'll therefore give you a brief summary
Varkala
The beach was beautiful, if too hot, and it would be a lovely place to come back to in season. It is only a little commercialised, and no high-rises yet.
Allepey
Cruising the backwaters on a houseboat
Kochin - The capital
The usual temples, and a visit by ferry to Cherai Bearch on Vypen island. Again this is a beautiful beach used by the locals and not Westernised at all.
I also had a cookery lessons so in theory, can make at least 4 dishes.
I travelled most of Kerala with 2 Lebanese girls, Mira and Rana. from Paris.
I am now off to start Phase 3 which I am calling (I know it's a bit corny)
Retreat, recovery and rejeuvination.
Hope that you are all enjoying the snow.
Lots of love
