Last India trip for a long time, but at least, will see something of the south, then Calcutta and Pushkar....
Spent these few days mainly in Fort Cochin - a small area ( no sign of the fort, which was destroyed long ago) with a port and tiny European buildings. Vasco da Gama was the first European here, then the Dutch. Its a very friendly, laid-back place, with only a little half-hearted hassle out on the streets.
The best thing is the 'tea' - this is a dry area, so if you want a beer, you ask for 'special tea' - foaming Kingfisher arrives, filled to the brim of a white teapot with flowery cups!
