Our train arrived 2 hours late in Ernakulam at 4.15am. Thankfully our friend Sagai was still waiting patiently for us and had been since 2am. We ended up staying with Sagai at his Catholic seminary for 3 days and organised some local sight seeing from there. This included a day in Fort Kochi where we saw traditional Chinese fishing nets, visited a Jewish Synagoge, shopped for our winter UK wardrobes. We then had an overnight stay on a houseboat, cruising the backwaters of Allepy. This was lovely and relaxing and we got some great shots of the sunset over the rice fields.
While in Ernakulam we finalised our trip north and planned an itinarary with our own driver for our final 8 days which includes Delhi, Agra, Jaipur and Jodhpur.
