Dreaming...

X


I was here...

X
gliding along the backwaters in a 'Kettuvallam'

or the traditional Keralan Houseboat...

These boats with coir and bamboo roofs were cargo boats in the past,
nowadays they are used as 2-3 room houseboats cruising
along the Malabar coast of India.
The arches of the boat are built with palm-leaf matting, woven into a
bamboo frame and tied together with coir ropes..
I dreamt I slept under this romantic canopy and woke up
to the gentle sound
of the oars splashing the water...
