The sun is rising. We must get the kayaks in the water, There are many kilometres to cover and much to explore!" Our guide Unni, feels most at home on the water. What better way to carry your night dreams into daydreams along the silky soft backwaters of Kerala. We are the tourists gliding by in our brightly coloured kayaks and though everyone is intrigued by our presence, daily life continues. The morning bath, washing dishes, chasing chickens and hanging the laundry all happen at the water's edge. With waves and welcoming smiles we paddle through what the locals call, 'God's Own Country'.
