First proper bus journey!

Ernakulam, India


After an amazing night’s sleep we headed to the bus station and luckily we straight away found seats.

However, it does seem that no one wants to sit next to 2 white travellers so most of the way it was just us on a bench that with a squeeze could fit 3 people. However, when someone did sit next to me, I did feel like a sardine with a largish Indian man to my left- and Chris to my right!

But to be honest the journey really wasn’t too bad about 1 ½ hours long and very breezy as there are no windows which meant not too many fragrant smells! We then took a small Ferry ride from Ernakulam to Fort Kochi and walked around for over an hour to find somewhere to stay as everywhere was full as it’s now high-season. Another long day!
