Backwaters

Here's a few pics from the backwaters, a huge 900km river system in Kerala. There are coconut and mango groves, rice paddies and these cool Chinese fishing nets. We went on a big boat from Kollam to Amma's and then Jan and I went on a two seater village tour.

Hi Jo,
I'm LOVING your blog! The pictures are beautiful and your stories are great too (good writing Jo!). You are really capturing the essence of the country. I read your anecdotes and my heart fills up because I love India so much. It is such a magical, openhearted and insane place--definitely one of my favourite spots on the planet. I am so glad you and Janice are having fantastic adventures. Please give her a hug for me. What are you two missing from Canada? I would love to send you a care package, so make your requests and let me know where you will be (near a Canadian consulate) within the next month to pick it up. Baby Norah is doing great. She has started flirting! Luc and I have decided that, no matter how precocious she is in the romantic area, she is still a little young to start dating.
Love you!
Anne
