April 7th: Munnar to Alleppey, Kerala
 |
| 5 AM came very early, as we walked to the bus station for our trip down to Alleppey. Buses in India= Cheap, Convenient, Slow, and Uncomfortable. |

 |
| Poor Megan... after picking up a few dozen more passengers, seating became scarce, so a woman and baby sorta fell asleep on her. She was such a sport though and just laughed about it. |
 |
| Something fantastic about riding the buses in India is the view... we got to see so much in our 5-6 hour journey... including the very wealthy side of India. Mansions such as the above lined the streets in one area. |

We found refuge in a small restaurant where we drank the absolute BEST milkshakes of our entire lives. I don't think I have ever enjoyed food as much as I did at that moment. We then went on the house boat hunt... |
