Got a taxi to town – stopped at a few department stores + under a government scheme the driver gets points towards school books every time he drops people off at approved places

Our driver and a 300 year old tree

 

Then to a Kathakali show, fascinating watching them do the makeup 

Then a a demo of hand and eye gestures

Then decorating the floor in the auditorium

 

On with the show

Story is the king loves a damsel and sends the swan to tell her

The swan is worried that the lady will reject the kings advances

But no! She loves the king back,

 

THE END

 

Great evening
