Over the last couple of years, I've been travelling, with my faithful Alto for company (o'course, unforgettably, my wife-J).
I've been able to collect quite a few of them. I'll be posting some of the more memorable ones.
To begin with, one that was recently shot at the Vembanad Lake in the Backwaters at Alleppey, where we stayed in a houseboat. Pity, it lasted just a day and a night... Oh.. the push-pull of a demanding job and running out of leave... In fact, I could take off this long after almost half-a-decade! Phew!
The houseboat crew (3 supposedly, a captain and a chef - but the cabin boy didn't come on board, that makes it two,actually) were surely disapointed as soon as we declared we are strict vegetarians! Poor them, simply ate ghaas-phoos for the period they were with us. Still, I must say - the Chef-Babu, cooked up some delectable veg local Kerala dishes for lunch, dinner & breakfast, with some colorfully cut pineapple pieces. They tried sugesting to us what 'others' do - showing some foreigners in other houseboats fishing in the waters, and explained 'this is how visitors / tourists catch & enjoy their fished food! Quite a fishy business!

The picture featured here is not of the sun-set in west, but the east, where the clouds reflected the sunset... just awesome, lost of words feeling.... this was taken at 6:40 in the evening...
