Hey guys, We left fort Cochin on tuesday night after the village tour (which was a nice day). The train left at 12 night time and arrived in Mangalore the next morning at about 10am. We were lucky to get the train as we didnt realise there were 2 stations in Ernakulum, each with a Mangalore train at the same time. Guess what? We got the wrong one! We had to run back, grab a taxi and get to the other station. I have never been so please that a train was late ...

Weve arrived in Cochin after an amazing boat day through the backwaters. We had our own houseboat for the day, it was really relaxing. Spent the last two days wandering around cochin, which is very colonial and doing some shopping. Its quite pretty by the front with all the fishing nets whre you can buy your fish and take it to the restaurant yourself for them to cook. Very fresh! Went for Ayuverda massage today, an experience! Its really a holiday now...

Hey everyone, Well, ive left sri lanka. Was really sad to go and leave all the people ive met. Good to have finished clinical though and finally be free! We arrived here this morning and have been busy this afternoon planning the next few days. We got the coolest taxi here ever. Will have to take a picture and send it. Its a really old style cab. Tomorrow we are going on a boat ride to some villages and then in the afternoon we go to our houseboa...
