Day 20 - Kochi to Trivandrum

Left Kochi around noon saying goodbye to Mithun and catching up with another friend, Sanjay, at the Kaloor Bus Stand.

The rivers and seas seem to merge as seen from the bridges on this route.

 

Asked for coffee on seeing this guy gravitationally frothing up a beverage off the stove but was surprised to learn they had only tea.

  

Fresh fish! Thought of taking some along but with nothing to carry it in, and a polythene too risky for the 4 hour journey ahead, had to be content with a photograph.

 

Evening over the coast

Some black tea on the terrace, surrounded by a forest of palms, even in the middle of the town.
