Larry's guide to the sout' of India.

I don't know where those two have gone but I thought I'd let you all know what I've been up to.

After Mumbai we headed to these really kewl place called Ajanta with all these caves carved out of the rock. They were over two thousand years old and still in amaaazin' condition, all with carvings of someone called budah. There were hoondreds and hoondreds of carvings of him on the walls, ceilings and entrances so I thought I'd get me picture taken with him.
Not quite sure what it was all about but all the people visiting seemed to be finding it difficult to answer some questions because they were all saying 'ummmmm, ummmmm' while they walked around.

Anyhoo, after Ajanta we got on another train and although I was left in John's rucksack I heard lots of laughter and the like but all I got from Louise was something about goats and pepsi. We eventually arrived in Goa for a week at the beach and for Louise's birthday, those two seemed to do nothing but swim and sit with a cold drink in their hands.
All I got from them at the end of the week was 'Goa was brilliant, Goa was fantastic, narnanarnanar (that's Louise) we wish we were still in Goa.'

After this we headed to Kerela and the really chilled backwaters. Again all these two seemed to do is sit back and drink cold drinks while we drifted round the calm canals.
The food was brilliant and there was even enough after John was finished for me to have some! I tried to have a go at steering the boat but Louise told me I didn't know anything about boats, what does she know? She's from Belfast and they built the Titanic and we all know what happened to that!!

After I dragged them off the boat we headed even further sout', in fact until you couldn't go any more sout', to the very tip at a place called Kanukamari. Jeepers it was windy, I'm Irish so you don't have to tell me how to hold on to me hat, but I had to hold on to Louise so I wasn't blown all the way to Africa!
It was quite foony as all the Indians just jumped straight in the water with their clothes on, even ladies in their Sari's.

After that we headed to Fort Cochin before we flew to Sri Lanka, John and Louise both seemed to like it as they could get to everything quickly and they weren't getting run over too often by the traffic. They also had these massive fishing nets on the shore which take four people to work which were really kewl.

Well, that's all from me now until these eejits let me back on.

Byeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!
