Final day in India
Saturday, March 07, 2015
Kochi, Kerala, India
A short walk to the catholic basilica followed by a stroll past old colonial buildings.we intended going to the indo-Portuguese museum but failed to find it, A tuktuk driver said he'd take us and we ended up at the Indian maritime museum instead which was fascinating.A rather biased view of their invasion of Goa,we got the feeling that they were rather disappointed the Portuguese didn't really fight back. Our tuktuk driver had waited for us and then took us to the Bristow hotel where we had been before.So our farewell beer and curry kept us out of the sun with a view of the sea and beach.The trees between us and the beach had wires stretched across them which trapped the sea eagles for a second or two and it was chilling to see the crows arriving to attack them but the eagles escaped.A walk back along the beach past the Chinese fishing nets soon had us back at our hotel where we told our taxi comes at 6am tomorrow.Eeek!
