I am writing this while looking out over the Arabian Sea. Our hotel, The Leela, Kovalum. The theme of this area is “Welcome to God’s Country”. It is worthy of the name. It is beautiful here. Our room overlooks the sea and we shall be lulled to sleep tonight by the sound of waves.

We left London Heathrow airport at 9:30 am and boarded our plane at 1:30. We arrived in Dubai airport @ 1:00 am Dubai time ( the clock moved 12 hours but our flit was only 8 hours long. We left 3.5 hours later and arrived in Trivandrum 4 hours later or 9:30 local time. We spent time today figuring out when we were. I will post pictures of where we are too.

We also had our 1st snack. What do you think about our choices. We don’t know what we are eating, but it was good
