Kerala


We made a trip to Kerala, which turned out to be the most amazing trip we have ever taken.

Kerala is a state located in southwestern India. One of Brian's co-workers back home is from Kerala and had told us about how beautiful it was and that it is a tropical location with lots of coconuts. Well, he was right!

It is monsoon season so it rained the majority of the time on our trip. We had planned on that, so it didn't put a damper on our plans. We made the best of it, and I think the rains actually added to the beauty of the land.

We spent a night in Kochi, a day on a houseboat in Alleppey, two nights in Munnar and a day in Fort Chochin. We packed in so much during our short trip that when we looked at all of our photos at the airport while waiting for the flight home, we had forgotten some of the things we had done!

The scenery and natural wonder of Kerala kept us awe-struck for the entire trip. It was more beautiful for words and unfortunately since it was raining we don't have many pictures of the scenery. But, we have it in our memories and will surely go back one day to visit again.
