Leaving for Alleppy in an hour, Tomorrow afternoon is the famous boat race, Nehru Trophy. Takes place every year 2nd Saturday of August. Planned all of a sudden, my style of traveling, just hop in to the train.
Took these pictures a few years ago, this is just a practice session at Thiruvarpu near Kottayam
Cherian, my friend was with me, it is very close to his house.
This team reperesents the village, they start practicing one month before. After each practice session, the villagers arrange sumptuous food and Charayam, (country liquor) for all the members of the team.
I'll be back on 14th, with pictures of the race and the story
All my love

"Doostan be ja-yeh mah" - our friends in our place, it means have fun and I'm glad that even though I can't enjoy it, a friend can!

There are longer boats FOUR DINNERS I'll post the pictures, yes there are bars in Alleppy house boats
No news of him Kate, There are more people on such boats, just for the race, that is not the normal mode of tansport, Normal ferries are usually crowded.
Thank you Don, just got back home safe.
There was partying everywhere fights too e2dees, almost every one was drunk. It was raining cats and dogs but that did not dampen their spirits. I'll write to you.
