Steaming

A quintessential India experience - I´d read about, spoke about and tried and failed (on a few occasions) to book train tickets since my arrival in Mumbai.
Now 450 miles away I was happily speeding toward Kochi... my gateway into Kerela.
Upon arrival I headed toward Fort Kochi... a small inlet which offered a mix of Giant Chinese Fishing nets, a synagogue, mosques and weird melee of medevil Portugal. Holland and England.
My two days were pretty uneventful but I did see an impressive show of Kalaripayatha... an ancient Indian Martial Art which can last days and uses over 200 weapons.

Here´s a couple of dudes reenacting a knife fight....HURRRR
