We couldn't decide what to do after the house boating. We have lots of things we would like to do in Rajisthan and there abouts - Agra, Jodphur, Jaipauir, Uaidipur, Varanasi etc, but it is now heading up to 40 degrees there. We are melting here at 35 degrees with 95% humidity so we know it is unrealistic to think we can trapse around looking at historical sites for a week or 2 - no matter how good they are. So, off to the beach for a few days to relax and flood the kids with western food bef...

... days, the ladies work 10-11 hour days four around 130 - 160rps per day, shocking amounts of money (1.80 - 2.00 GBP) and something to take into account, buy fair trade tea if you have the option people! Our journey into the Munnar hills continued stopping frequently to take yet more pictures of the scenery, we were heading for 'Top Station' which is one of the higher points of the area at 2000m+ above sea level. The temperature at this altitude was ...
Kerala, India darrylandnicola... a bit, but there really wasn't much to see. I wonder why the ship stops at some ports.
I asked the driver to take us to the shops that he would use to buy clothes and they were really great. Very crowded with merchandise and lots of staff. The girls were in their traditional 2 piece outfits (not saris) and looked gorgeous with their big brown eyes. They were looking at me and laughing and I asked what they were laughing at and was told it was my ...
... ein guter Vergleich, zieht auch die gleiche Art von Menschen an.
Es waren 4 sehr relaxte Tage mit vielen unterhaltsamen Gespraechen...die meisten Leute sind supernett und freundlich.....viel gutem Essen und leider auch einem Sonnenbrand auf der Nase.
Interessanterweise hatte ich die ganzen Tage in Tamil Nadu, wo die Sonne wirklich geknallt hat ohne Sonnenschutz keine Sonnenbrandprobleme, aber in Kerala bei komplett bedecktem Himmel ging's ohne Sonnenschutz ratzfatz.
... screaming, soaking, dancing and laughing in the rain.
I felt four years old again and it felt f****king fantastic.

Varkala, Kerala, India ericetmanuHello again everyone! So, inevitably it would seem, I have fallen victim to the 'Delhi Belly' or whatever you wish to call it. For the last five days I have been pretty much bed ridden and instead of enjoying all Varkala offers; yoga, the wonderful beaches, fantastic restaurants and the company of two very interesting and beautiful ladies from Austria I have been in my hotel room reading my Joseph P. Kennedy biography, sweating and staring at the ceiling fan ...

Varkala, Kerala, India inoursuitcase... on stage the other night for the first time in India. It was that radiant warn blanket feeling, as some of you know. It is amazing how it eminates directly from her physical body anywhere from 10 too 20 feet it is unmistakable. It's like being in the womb again (even though I can't remeber that feeling I'm sure that's what it feels like-a peace unlike any other I've ever felt. Drugs and alcohol don't even compare. It is a radiant love and peace that Mahatma's (great souls ...
Kerala, India jagadish... Had a nice cup of chai with a few of the boys, really good feeling overall and great produce (brussel sprouts, artichokes, coffee...) met up with our ubiquitous travel budy, Rickard, after the market. Great to see him, only caught up briefly in Bombay, so we found a grassy spot and talked about all the great food we'd been trying (among other things). Mark got a sudden spurt of adventourousness (i know that isn't a word!) and tried ...
