| We just spent 4 relaxing days in Kerala. The first two nights we stayed in a tree fort 'hotel' on a mountain side at 4,200' above the town of Munnar. |
 |
| The room was wonderfully rustic and when one person moved the whole fort moved as well. There was only space for Jex on the floor so in the creative Indian fashion they simply added a pillow and our bed was now 'made for three'. |

View down onto the town of Munnar…yes that's tea all the way up the opposite hillside.
 |
| The tea plantations started 200yds from our fort and extended as far as you could see |
 |
| I used to think I was tough…this man carried these logs barefoot down the jeep track…at a jog! |
We spent a night on a houseboat close to Kochi… very mellow experience with views of local village life on the backwater shores.

Kalaripayattu, an ancient, arial martial art is becoming more popular again.
Cricket is played on every vacant lot and field in every city. We spent an hour watching the local kids in Kochi. They were quite shy but kept turning and smiling at us… or maybe it was laughing... |
