Tilda the Riceboat

24 hours on a riceboat for 2 with all our food, drink and the best scenary in the world - cannot be bad hey! We had a wonderful overnight stay on our rice boat - Tilda. We saw our next home, a hut on its own island with 2 canoes parked outside surrounded by coconut trees and mangroves. Perfect!

We finally managed to drag ourselves away from the beach and do some exploring. After our rice boat trip we heading to the mostly southerly point in India, Kanyakumari. We saw a wonderful sunrise with the rest of the crowds of pilgrims and it really was like glastonbury festival, cheers when the sun popped up. The temple in Kanyakumari is magical and as we were walking in I was pushed out of the way by a goat - only in India!!

The trains are still as great as ever and a really good way to meet with locals and see the amazing landscapes that pass by. We are now in Maduari, the temple city and off to the east coast tomorrow.

I feel like I am eating my way around India - it really is veggie heaven
