Hi from Kochi (Cochin)


D. signs on with a local Chinese net crew to pay for the flight from Bangalore.


Waiting for the sleeper bus.
We made it to Kochi, yahoo! We did the walking tour and have seen most of the things to see here - fighting fatigue from the rough bus ride last night. Even got to watch a little of the filming of a Bollywood movie on location in old Kochi. Went to see a traditional Indian dance performance tonight and both of us fell asleep - several times. Tomorrow we head south for the houseboat. We're settling in to the Indian way of doing things. Our energy and interest levels are high.
Read another version of the bridge collapse today, which said that six people were killed and many others injured. Roger

  1. What?! Dana restrained herself from popping into the scene during the Bollywood filming?

  2. Hi...I google the bridge collapse this morning. It says 7 died and many injured. There is an incredible picture of the collapsed bridge on the web page. Did you actually walk over it or just go under it? Also, are you able to read our comments on the blog? xo Nancy

  3. Yes, We are able to read your comments on the blog and appreciate doing so. We didn't walk over that bridge because it wasn't finished. It was to be finished in about a month.
