Kochi, India


A ministry day - raising awareness for the environment on
"World Environment Day" and planting trees.
Our host then took us on a short tour of the area.
This is the biggest Catholic cathedral in all of Kochi and the surrounding
areas (though not much competition in a Buddhist country).

People would make atonement by performing services such as
cleaning the cathedral and surroundings.


Fishing nets in the river!

Traditional lunch served on banana leaves!

Next to our tree planting spot was a small river - these are
a different kind of fishing net.



In Kochi we were docked on an island - to get to either shore
we took one of these small ferries for 2 ruppees.

A local fruit market
