Early morning on Varkala beach


You name it - we´ve got it!

The beach from our North Cliff


The temple moves out on the beach,
for morning blessings

No comments...




Morning shower

Don´t swim there!

The steps up from the beach...

Masala chai on the way,
and a well deserved breakfast is there!

57 Elephant´s Festival

Well - we had to leave this pool, because
57 elephants wanted to see us..

Welcoming parade - wirh Keralan King-Kong!?


Here come the first elephants



Minutes before he kicked my leg; 
no, you will not get a photo of my blue mark....










Spectators were everywhere - even on the roof

Holy Cow and Elephant in the Madurai Temple




A very "good" politician...

A holy ceremony around the temple...

..that ends with feeding and blessing a holy cow.

Not a pizza - Kashmiri nan.


In the Madurai temple, there is a holy elephant.

And in this temple, they asked us to join the singing and dancing...


Our excellent driver (left ;-))

Lunch - a thali meal.

The Western Ghat mountain ridge - takes a good driver to cross..

You don´t know what this is - we didn´t.
There is cotton inside the long fruit.


This fruit you can both eat and drink.

On the border to Kerala. Many lorries with hay from
Tamil Nadu on their way to Keralan milk farms.

Need some help to drive this baby, guys?
