Dance

This morning the jet lag and full on days finally caught up with me. I didn't set an alarm and subsequently didn't wake up on time. I almost missed the event! The tour guide, Alex, came to my room to collect me. I threw on a dress from the previous night and ran outside. Thankfully I keep my day bag packed each evening.

We rode tuk tuks to the kathakali university. I took video of all the others in their vehicle. It was a nice way to get to the place. We watched students doing the traditional dance. They have to study for 10 years starting as early as 10 years of age. The dancers we saw were really good.

Afterwards a few of us decided to walk back to the hotel. I needed to get my steps as well as trying to find tonic water. Walking in the midday heat was intense. It was officially 35C but feels like 40C! I got some yogurt, granola, apples, crisps and lemon lime soda as there was no tonic water.

I spoke to the guys mostly on the walk. We chatted about travelling, what we thought about the group trip and various other bits.Meer informatie
