Day 16, 17, and 18 - 10, 11, and 12 January Traveling from Nepal to Delhi to Cochin to Maldives

-

 Not a lot of photos… because it was airports, busses, and a JW Marriott in Delhi… 

We did meet the Agra tour (14 people). They had been together as long as our little group… Kind of made us feel like interlopers… which wasn’t made any better by the fact that Joseph, Connie and I had upgraded ourselves to business… Oh well :)

Local brew at the club in Kathmandu

Really fancy Sari shop at the JW Marriott… alas it was closed!!!

Cochin was interesting even if we just drove from the airport to the seaport… but interesting fact… it is the house boating capital of India :)  really !!!! Here is a link the  Lake Shasta/Lake Powell of India Kerala Backwaters

Spent the next day at sea getting to Male Maldives… during the evening the captain came on and informed us that because of weather coming in… we were leaving the Maldives early and spending a day at sea… more to come
