3rd weekend - Trip to Kochi

We decided to explore Kerala and Kochi area over a weekend. After 5 hours of bumpy bus ride, we finally arrived in Kochi. We were all tired as it took a lot longer than we thought it would be, but, guess what? It was worse the visit!

I took a Yoga and Meditation class on Sunday morning. Healing power of Yoga is unbelievable, it was such a magic I felt so relaxed after the class. 

This is how washing gets done if you take your cloth to a cleaner. There is no machines, all the washing is done by hand.

Wow, such a large washing field! I never seen anything like this before!!

Beautiful catholic church. I was surprised that many Indians are catholic.

Colorful spices

Beach side town of Kochi

Soft textile carpets

Local kids were asking me to take photos. They love seeing their picture. Very cute.

Famous river cruise of Kerala backwater.

It was just like the pictures I saw. Calm water and green trees.

Sunset mediation. Shanti~ Shanti~

It was the most relaxing and quite 2 hours we had in India. Watching beautiful sunset and I was in a deep thought about family, friends, home, past, future. Local ladies living by the river were having a bath and washing their cloth in the river. I wonder how they think of us cruising on a sight seeing boat. One thing very clear is, we are very lucky to be here.

Cherai Beach in Kochi. Warm water, hot weather, many tourists.
