Speeding ever south (well a slightly exaggeration) on buses and trains, I left Pondicherry for the temple towns of Tanjore and Trichy in Tamil Nadu and reached the southern point of India. Indias not so neverending after all! From this Holy point, it was into tropical Kerala, a look at some of its famous backwaters and a then to a wildlife park high in the Western Ghats. Next stop Goa...
The fantastic sandstone clad Unesco temple at Tanjore. A Holy elephant was patrolling the grounds and it blessed me for 5 rupees!

This fellow had rather large looking horns!
In Trichy at the rock temple. We hot-footed it up the stairs fast in the blinding heat!
Ok then bunny
Sunset at Konyakumari, India's southern most point and one of only a few places where you can watch the sunset and sunrise over the ocean. I stuffed it up though and somehow managed to find the only place where it fell on the land!
Seashells in the seychelles
Village cruise in the backwaters of Kerela. This massive network of canals connects much of the state.

Coconut milk! I travelled with Ross and Margeox for a few days and learnt the difference between Queensland leaches and Keralan leaches from them!

Thanks for the ride maaate
The brochure didnt say the elephant package included this?
Leaches after the 'Nature Walk'. The leaches were just crazy! 50 or so at a time would be crawling up everyones trousers, with most of the walk spent flicking them off!
