I received an email from my cousin, Harini. I loved her reference to photography and so here it is, her travelogue:
“though i've taken lots of pictures, i already know i will be disappointed, partly because i'm not the greatest with a camera and also because all of the images are best captured in my mind anyway.”
“i can't even begin to explain how incredibly beautiful kerala is, but i will try because it is worth the attempt. people here call it “god's own country” and i see why they believe that. in the past several days we have seen amazing beaches, beautiful little temples, churches and mosques in the little surrounding villages, amazing sunsets, fields and fields of rice paddies, coconut and banana trees as far as the eye can see, the big white smiles of people, big brown eyes of the children, jungles, lagoons, and now forests. and added to all of that is all of our amazing experiences with the people here. they are so proud of their land, work so hard, crazy back-breaking work and all with their own two hands, they believe in the politics of their place (can you imagine that? i can't tell you how many communist flags we've seen proudly hanging in the villages with pictures of che everywhere!), and most amazing of all, they remain, truly in awe of the beauty of this place. it really has re-defined my perspective on peace, happiness, quality of life, so many things….”

I am traveling to Chennai and Kerala from December 20, 2004 to January 10, 2005 to … relax and take pictures. Can your cousin write me about specific places she enjoyed staying? At this late date (November 30) I still have no idea where to stay and don’t have relatives or friends in the area. If she knows any local photographers or guides I could hook up with there that would be great too:) Ida pnhp@aol.com
