Rice paddies and threatening clouds on the bus ride to Palakkad, on my way to the mountains of Tamil Nadu. |
More rice paddies - cultivating rice is not an easy thing! |
On the dam wall of a colonial project outside Palakkad. Locals hang out in the sculpted gardens and have picnics |
While eating lunch - chicken curry - I captured this scene on the street. A guava seller. |
They say that Tamils have their roots in Africa...before the splitting of the continents. Well, this could very well be Kampala! |
Kanyakumari - at the tip of the sub-continent |
At the ferry line-up, waiting to go to the viewing points at the tip of India |
A view through the latticed bricks - A view of Saint Rich Church and Our Lady of Refuge Church |
The temple at the rocks at the tip of India |
A view of the mixing waters - taken from the viewing tower. |
The driver of the bus on the way back from Kanyakumari to Thiruvananthapuram. |
Notice the rice paddies in the background and the women toiling. |
This reminded me of the Greek Islands...don't know why. There is something universal about coastal cities and villages. |
