...the best laid plans....

Sooooooo, that idea about us heading up the west coast back to mumbai? Stopping off at Cochin and Goa on the way? Well - forget that... we tried today to book trains from Cochin to Margoa (in Goa) and it turns out all trains into Goa are fully booked until the 20th feb... that's ALL trains...

which basically means that we've screwed up... so we're staying in kerela for another week or so... could be worse I guess... we're gonna take another flight back up to mumbai on the 21st... then to chandigarh on the 22nd... (doing our bit for global warming as we think it's not hot enough here...)

More immediatly though... we've decided to head south, bite the bullet, and check out kovalam.... see what all the fuss is about... we're here now having got the train down to thiruvananthapuram... (trivandrum for short [remember...?]) and then a cab the last few k's to kovalam itself... it's pretty built up (compared to Varkala that is) but... there's still sea and surf and sun... so it's not too bad... we're just about to head out for some dinner... having not ate since breakfast... it's now what... 6.43pm and I'm bloody famished...

Ear infection is a definate... got some gubbins to shove in there... some liquid or other... I dunno it's probably rats pee for all I know... lets hope it does the trick... oh and I've got man flu... simon had it before... sarah before that... and I think it's that one that alex and andy had at the pron palace in leamington... cheers guys... mucho appreciated... ;)

any hoo... I'm off for some Khana!!! (that's desi for food!)

Take it easy kids... (DAMN These mossys... just got bit on my tummy...ouch...!)

pete :)

From the cheery photos, no-one would be able to guess that you're all feeling poorly!
