Cruising, Cochin, and Kathakali
This is a top pick! ... intensity and skill of the performers. Suffice it to say that I loved it! Kerala has been a wonderful "easing-in" to India. The friendly people, fairly hassle-free travel, tasty cuisine, rich culture, and exquisite natural beauty make it a wonderful ...
Alleppey
This is a top pick! Sunday July 13th Today I woke up late- some of the other students elected to go to a Catholic mass at the old church across the river, but being neither ecumenically minded nor an early riser (it started at 7:30) I elected to sleep ...
32 degrees - at 3am - God help us...
This is a top pick! We woke early as we had to check out of the guest house and catch our bus to Margaom train station (60R) which we had decided to take instead of a taxi (1000R). We headed down the road in the direction that the hotel staff pointed us in (there are ...
A Day in God's Own Country
This is a top pick! ... to China. We spoke of democracy, which Xin thought was "kind of messy," and Thomas rather agreed. He said that, yes, India was the world's largest democracy, but is it really the best system of government? He spoke of the Bharatiya Janata ...
After a horrible night a lovely day
This is a top pick! We woke at 7:10am to get a taxi to the boat jetty to find a home for the next 3 days courtesy of Chris and Trish. After exploring about 4 boats and finding out prices etc we settled on our own Rice Barge and ended up agreeing a price which included as ...
Faulty towers
This is a top pick! ... hello to Tony for me." It was so funny, they were very friendly and at the same time it was so chaotic, just like India really. Back at the hostel we weighed up the chance of a strike being called off by the next morning as very un-likely ...
House Boat ... DO IT!!!
This is a top pick! ... the boat. The next group was booked for 11am. They kicked us off at 10am the next morning - an hour earlier the planned. Welcome back to India, Brittany. We strapped on our backpacks and headed to a nearby beach to hang for the ...
Not Much Happening Here..
This is a top pick! ... went on. We unfortunately didn't have time to stick around. Probably a great little place to stop at if you're going on a house boat but otherwise keep on going south or north and skip Alleppey. Next Pod - Cochin, India. Love, Nath and ...
Village Life
This is a top pick! ... cooking and household duties. Life in the village was considerably slower than anywhere else we have experienced in India. Days revolved around the all-important activities of cooking, eating, cleaning, visiting, playing, and resting. ...
Kerala - Alleppey - Day 20
This is a top pick! Was picked up by the owner of the houseboat this morning and taken by rickshaw to the docks where the boat was moored. First impressions of boat where good, a beautiful vessel which you could easily live on full time, has everything you could ever need. ...
American, Russian and Indian are on a boat
This is a top pick! The back waters of Kerala were nice, but not the hyped up experience every guide-book suggests. I ended up sharing a boat ride with Sean and a super fun Moscow couple - Andrew and Merry. We spent 22 hours chit-chatting about world travels, stuffing ...
Kerala - Kochi/Alleppey - Day 19
This is a top pick! ... on the bus, it's only a short 65km ride which takes around one and a half hours to this primary backwater town. Alleppey (Alappuzha) is very different to Kochi, the best way to describe Alleppey is that it's more Indian than the European feel of Kochi, a ...
Breakfast of Champions
This is a top pick! Managed to drag ourselves out of bed at 6.45am, ready for our first full day of cycling since we arrived. It was actually lovely and cool outside the hotel when compared to our stifling windowless room. We headed straight to the ferry dock hoping to get ...
Calming Kerala
This is a top pick! ... little inhibited by the snoring chef and the sauna like atmosphere of the non-a/c cabin. Humidity aside, Kerala is a beautiful place to finish out tour of India, and it goes some way to justify it's claim to be "God's own country" Caroline and ...
The backwaters
This is a top pick! My train was supposed to arrive in Allepy at 3am, so i sat myself in the carriage with a policeman at about half two, waiting for my stop. He very worryingly sat very close to me then began massaging my hand. I know its common for Indian men to be rather ...
A weekend in God's Country
This is a top pick! ... house but never did I think I would be having a woman rub me down with herbal powder in the middle of the backwaters of India. It even came with a complimentary toweling off. I only laughed harder when a couple I ran into later that night did the same ...
Kerala - Peace, relaxation... and the Mozzies!!
This is a top pick! Kerala Backwaters...... Our next stop brought us to a small scale Ayurvedic resort set on the backwaters. After another hair raising journey in a taxi ignoring traffic lights and on coming traffic we arrived in one piece. Of course Mish slept most of ...
Alleppy / Alappuzha
This is a top pick! On Saturday 11th February 2006 we headed south by train to Alleppy or Alappuzha as it is also known. This was our first trip by train. Just a short one of one hour at the princely sum of 27 Rupees each which worked out to be 35 pence each. Goodness knows ...
Cochi
This is a top pick! We flew back to Cochi to enjoy a few days of further exploring in the relaxed area around Fort Cochi and some final shopping for spices etc before our onwards flight. ...
Backwaters Tour
This is a top pick! After a quick train ride we arrived in Alleppey, the gateway to the Keralan Backwaters or as some call it the "Venice of the East"...which we didn't think to be true but it's still a chilled place and the Gowri Hotel was really comfy. We were glad to ...
Alleypey et la porte des backwaters
Dimanche 26 avril Apres une matinee a savourer une derniere fois le calme de Fort Kocki, nous nous sommes separes a grand regret de notre compagnon de route, Stefano, qui a decider de remonter sur Goa le lendemain alors que nous prenions le bus ce ...
Allepey
From Kochi we took a bus to Allepey, where we found out that our plans of taking a boat cruise down the canals to Kollam were not possible. Apparently, these cruises only run during the high season, so we paid a shady guy to take us on a three hour ...
What nightmares are made of
I have officially come to the conclusion that there has been a country-wide mistranslation of the English word ''no'', throughout India. It seems it is likely being misunderstood as meaning ''maybe'', ''I'll think about it'', or ''tomorrow is ...
Crusing in a houseboat
So our ride to Alleppey was our first experience on an Indian night train. We were really happy to be travelling with Katharina and Michael who were so adept at the trains they made the trip much less stressful. We travelled in class on the 2AC ...
Bollywood star
... disfrutar de la ineficiencia agena, pero es muy turistico y "tipico", esperemos que algo de lo que uno paga los beneficie a ellos.(India es extremadamente rica, se dice que la pobreza en africa es una tragedia, pero en India un escandalo..casi la mitad ...
"Venice of the East"
We made our way back, this time to Allepey by bus crossing the hills in early morning. We watched the kids waiting for their school bus to pass by- all schools have their own uniform. Women are already working on the spice plantation fields. From ...
Dreams Kerala
We had a wonderful trip to Kerala arranged by "Dreams Kerala". Eldho met us at the airport Cochin bringing us safely to our hotel. The next day we had sightseeing at Fort Cochin. The old chinese fish nets were special and fun to see how they ...
Kerelan dirty canal waters
Got to Aleppy (Alappuzha) only a short while later than promised. Found somewhere to live for 2 days (a very nice guesthouse with abominable internet called the Dream Nest). It was raining again so I bought myself a couple of beers from the seedy alcohol ...
Backwaters!!!
Heute gings dann weiter Richtung Sueden, weil wir ja in 5 Tagen in Trivandrum sein muessen um unseren Zug nach Goa zu bekommen Als naechste Station stand Alleppey auf dem Programm, was in erster Linie der Startpunkt in die Kerala Backwaters ist. Wir ...
