A 24 hour cruise in a one-room houseboat.
In the still backwaters of Aalapuzha
Boats of bamboo and coconut fibre
Three complete authentic Kerala meals
Palm fringed picturesque landscape
Walking on the edge of the paddy fields
Little children surprised by us
Potential “foreigners†who spoke Malayalam
Sailing through the tiny canals
Edged with houses on both sides
Humungous grilled lobsters for dinner,
Sunset on the Vembanadu kayal
Sleeping on the boat with the sea-breeze,
A brief moment of tranquility
Amidst the frenzy that is the India trip.
