Well Finn,
After time out in the north we all decided that it was time to retreat again to the beach and in fact to try to find somewhere where there was a sense of
tourism.
This has been a strong learning curve for us, and me especially. In Morocco we’re independent and can travel where and when we want (well when we can), because we have habiby and Rusty.
Prior to that we or I at least, travelled alone and it didn’t really matter how or when you got to your destination…if there was a destination! But with 
you now we need to think again about this. A couple of destinations at most is now a much.
Quality time spent in one place, with perhaps some local travel, but generally thinking about what will be best for you, which is also best for us!
Thus we spent more time in Kannur. It had beaches and friends for you. To travel is too difficult without our own transport…it’ll be interesting to see how this effects our future plans…I think we’re talking house
swops and maybe spending time in a few of those valleys I visited in Sth Morocco!
So, we ended up going to Fort Cochi and based ourselves there for a week. Unfortunately I don’t have many images of the wealth
of the place, but I can show you how multi cultural it was. Buddhist, Christians, Muslims, Hindus, jews all mixed up….oops and of course there are always those amazing Chinese fishing nets to remind us 
of links to the east!
This was also reflected in the architecture, art and
art cafes and green spaces which was stunning, we all loved it. I must admit I was very sceptical and happy to be proved wrong.
It also reminded me of Zanzibar with the mix of Arab and Indian culture and of course we all loved the chance to eat pizza, drink beer with ease and just…be on holiday!
