Entry from: Trivandrum, India Entry Title: “5000 year old temple” Entry: “We left Kerry’s apartment at about 10 AM for the Mumbai domestic airport. This time we took an auto-rickshaw. They are really a motorcycle with three wheels, a wind shield and a frame that holds the cover. There was just room enough between the seat and rear cover to stick two small suitcases – which was amazing. The auto rickshaw has a size advantage in this traffic. It can fit into really small openings and pass the cars, trucks and buses by weaving in and out, creating new lanes. We also passed bikes, crossing pedestrians, street vendors, beggars and the occasional buffalo pulling a milk cart. It was actually nice to have open air sides to provide a breeze. The vast majority of taxis are tiny and not air conditioned. Our luggage would have been tied on to the top of the cab. Another plus for the rickshaw is that the trip to the airport cost about $3. Bombay was already hot and smoky and we were happy to move on. On the way to the airport we passed Dharavi, the slum made famous by Slumdog Millionaire. We could only see the edge of the slum from the street, but from the air we got the full view. It is enormous – a vast array of gray roofs without roads that goes on and on and on. It is the largest slum in Asia and more than 1 …

On the sandy beach at Wissant , you may see the strange sight of a tractor driving out of the sea. This is how fishermen launch their boats along this coast.Their small fishing boats are called “flobarts”. This coast was very popular with English visitors in Victorian days.

Located on the west coast of Africa, Senegal is one of the continent’s most exciting destinations. Globe Trekker Zoe Palmer starts her journey in the capital Dakar, the vibrant home of more than 2 million people. After checking out the city’s colorful markets and pulsating nightclubs, she visits historic Gorée Island, just offshore, to learn of its infamous past as one of the centers of the slave trade in West Africa. Zoe catches a gig by the godfather of Senegalese music, Youssou N’Dour and also learns about the harsh reality of poverty in Senegal, when she meets one of the thousands of Senegalese who over recent years have risked their lives attempting the perilous journey in small fishing boats to Europe in search of a better life. Leaving Dakar, Zoe travels deep into the interior of Senegal, stopping off at the Muslim holy city of Touba, en route to the Niokola-Koba National Park. Heading onwards into the remote territory of the Bassari people, Zoe visits the village of Oubadji, where she is privileged to see a rarely witnessed traditional tribal ceremony. Making the long journey back to Dakar, Zoe flies on to the little known Cape Verde islands, 500 kilometers off the Senegalese coast. With a spectacularly beautiful volcanic landscape, these islands were once at the center of the Trans-Atlantic slave trade. Offshore from Santiago Island, she goes wreck-diving and explores a collection of barnacle-encrusted anchors belonging to old sailing ships, many of them slavers …

A Doric Scots Poem by G Morrison about the spring o the year when the small fishing boats went back to the sea after ther winter storage on the pier, They wer often wery leaky!!

Los Blancos beach seems deserted February 6, 2010. Not much to do, but swim and catch some rays. Maybe wait for the small fishing boats to come ashore after a long day of fishing. I was helping the fishermen push their boats ashore after each wave of the incoming tide. There are a couple small comedores to grab a cheap meal and so far I have had no trouble with an upset stomach.

A very short clip showing the beach a few miles east of the town of Dunkirk (Dunkerque), made famous by the World War Two evacuation of over 300000 British and French troops in May 1940.
