Day 14 in Kochi (Last night in India)

Everybody checking their electronic devices to start the day

We got to go the beach

and swim in the Arabian Sea

So fun!

Took a rest

and then had even more fun!

Next made it to Kochi -- this is Ghandi beach

We had fun playing on the jungle gyms
(When in India) play like an egyptian
Quick bite of pizza before the dance performance






Awesome drumming, crazy make-up, and cool acting

We liked the pizza so much we went back for seconds!
Can't believe its our last day and we're going home! I might be sick of pizza!

Day 13: House Boat in Kerela

Start the day with a picture of baby Nora!
Max and I are lost in books

Marissa and I working on the blog!
Most of us took a van to the house boat. Daddy got to ride on the motorcycle.
Here's a boat and a turkey!
Here's me, living on the edge



Of our houseboat!


Mostly reading through the day

An ice cream boat (instead of a truck) came up to us and we all got some! Yum!

Yup our boat had a dance-off with one of many other boats
Here's Marissa taking pictures

Pretty, right?!







The boat stopped to buy fressh seafood
and coconuts



There were some amazing views!




After dinner, we taught everybody Assasa!


We ended the night with a couple games of Literature! Never ask Siva for any cards!
