we’re off round the world!!
Day two of Kelly & Sam in India….
We woke up at 1am feeling great, head out about 5am when it was still dark, a safer time to travel around the city trust me, when you cross an India road its a leap of faith and you do best to just not look and hope they stop. We headed to the Sri Padmanabhaswamy temple got there when it was still dark so wandered around some really cool streets around it where we met more lovely people and had a delicious cup of chai and onion bhaji doughnut for breakie which cost pennies whilst wtaching the sun come up and enourmous bats fly over us tres cool! We’d had a fantastic morning and walked around sightseeing for a few hours and then expertly negotiated a rickshaw to Kovalam arriving at about 7:30am, as we hit the town a man stopped us and offered us a room which is where we are staying now, its lovely really clean air con and a pool all for 4 quid a room per night. after agreeing on the room we head out again (for beer) and were delighted to find I was no longer an embarassment and didn’t need to pay to go in a side room…did you check out the bed in the picture of that room, I dread to think! Anyway so we sat with cold beer and watched the fishmen painstakingly haul in their catch, brilliant to watch and when we get vids sorted got a full video of it.
A lot of jellyfish but mainly small fry. We spent the day dosing in bars, had an early night and so here we are today. Got up early watched the fishmen again but this time more respectfully with a cup of chai, the weather is incredibly hot so spent quite a bit of time in the sea then though we’d better make contact.
Not decided if we’re going to stay another day or head off to our next place which we think is going to be Varkala, will keep you guys posted on our whereabouts and as soon as we get the phones sorted we’ll let you know. But we’re happy and we’re safe and its amazing here is all you need to know, already completely forgotten about the world of work hahaha..sorry couldn’t help myself. Lots of love to you all xx
