... night we take a 12 hr "sleeper" bus to Bangalore for a 5 day yoga course ... no, i haven't become a devotee, it's a very special yoga .... laughter yoga (www.laughteryoga.org). Another friend will meet us from Uk for her easter hols ... and then we'll be on somewhere else (monsoon and swoon dependent). There's alot of talk about the north (meaning Nepal) being cooler and peak time for visiting ... who knows, i quite fancy the madness of ...

... bull. The old boy evidently wasn't at all pleased that his territory was being occupied and as he slowly strutted down the beach on this morning, he was making it known to all under no uncertain terms that he was coming to take on his challenger. Low and behold, here we were in our hammocks under the trees with a ring side seat to a classic bull fight on the shores of the Arabian Sea with barely another human soul to witness the event ...

It took about half an hour to get rid of the ******* and it kept coming back, in the end I threw the bananas into a bush and when the rat came back he got a wallop from my walking boots and that was that.

On our final evening Brian and Sarah had Max and I and a bunch of other people over for a home cooked campfire meal. Their Hut was the Taj Mahal of all coco huts on the beach perched on the top of a rock face overlooking ...

... asked whether we would like to have some poojas, but we managed to escape from them. The temple is not maintained properly - I have always felt that Kerala temples are the best in the world (just a personal opinion). Kunkumam being sold in the shops outside the temple Horrible comments about the trek From the temple, we went to Om. The aim was to get some information about the trek route. The drive up the hair-pin road was really scenic ...

... the time I made my way around. Much more of the NON VEG diet here than in Assam. Very attentive room service guy nearly suffocated me with the bug spray - but I think whatever was in that can will at least put the mosquitos to sleep for a few hours if not kill them. It is a decent room - the kind where the corners of the room are not fully covered in betel nut splattered spit. A real plus is the hot water, and free soaps and towels and sheets!!!
