Kollum to Verkala

After the houseboat we took another boat to Kollum... it was more or less a big dirty city, so our stay was short. So short that we took few pictures, and none of them made the cut for the blog!

But our next stop Verkala, where we've been for the past 4 days.
Here is a picture of us ejoying at beer at sunset on our first night here.


And the beach our days are centered around. We stay up in a really nice guest house on the cliff with a balcony, and hike down to the beach whenever we're in the mood to play.We've made some good friends here, had a great time, and found ourselves in a routine that will be hard to get up. We've added a Pomme (Steve) and an American (Leith) to our foursome, and the routine is great. We get up in the morning and do yoga on the beach lead by Jo (yeah thats everyone including yours truly), then go play in the waves enjoying epic body surfing competitions until about 10:30-11 when we go for a breakfast. We whatever we like during the day (usually includes more time at the beach), and then meet up again for 5 for more body surfing competitions until sunset. As seen below. Then dinner and drinks after which I don't think has taken anything short of 3 hours since we got here to finish off the night... A tough life indeed.

And we had to include this... just because the retaurant doesn't have a liquour license doesn't mean they won't serve beer. Just wrap a news paper around it and nobody is the wiser... :)

In short, we really like it here. So much we may just have to stay another couple days...
