19. - 9 January: shopping in Cochin

Morning breakast at the hotel, rich Indian breakfast! One last walk through town, some shopping of local music and a final decision on Indian antiques. The list of acquisitions is long:

-- four bullheads, big white wood sculptures

-- three peacock lamps to be used with oil and wick, very typical of this part of India

-- two large bronze pots used for cooking, they weigh about 25kg each!

It’s time to start heading home :-( Off to the airport and uneventful flight to Delhi, with a stopover in Mumbai. Once in the capital
