This is the last one in the series ;-)
After lots of traveling, confusions, some non-sense but mostly great great adventure in the south of India which basically consisted of typical interior tourist places to explore; we were finally back to a city. We reached here late night by bus (some 5 hours of journey!). We took a hotel near station and went into a deep sleep.
Day 6: Cochin
Next day was all planned to be a lazy shopping day. We had our train in afternoon. We got dressed and asked the auto-wallah to take us to the biggest shopping mall in Cochin. i.e. Lulu Mall. We shopped! We ate, we randomly roamed and had fun! We went to another local market but had to be back soon to catch our train. We quickly packed our stuff and reached station that was at a walkable distance. We literally ran to get our train coach... phew!! We were off to Chennai. I had to help with my sister's textile exhibition and my friend would be off to our Hometown. :-)

Still can't believe I actually made this journey possible. I feel good, confidant and just more good about myself. A good thing would be to take along a friend who is like minded and copes well with situations :-)

Below are things I shopped from the whole Kerala trip! Many things were already distributed before I could think of taking pictures. Enjoy!
