Kai and I headed to Alleppey to meet with an old family friend of mine from Petersfield. The lovely Georgy. We hadn't seen each other for quite a few years and it was a blast to catch up with her again. We caught up with George at a rather disappointing hotel and made plans for a 2 night boat trip, for the following day. We were expecting a damp, pathetic looking vessel to be greeting us, but to our amazement were ushered on board a spankingly clean, spacious, luxurious rice barge. Just beautiful. The beer was brought on, the music system on full and we were off. Cruising like royalty down the waterways of Kerela. Just pure guilty bliss. Food was prepared for us and was excellent. It was the best way to connect again with George and a real treat after traveling in India. Bloody gorgeous. When can I do it again. Ahhhhhh..................
