Checked out at 10:30am & drove to where we thought houseboat departed. Arrived back at hotel at 13:15 where houseboat actually departed from. Welcomed with a coconut water drink. Moored for lunch at about 2pm. Lunch was sambar, fried fish, bean thoran, popadoms, aviyal and lime pickle & then payasam for dessert (like rice pudding but with vermicilli).
Then had half a pineapple expertly sliced.
Setoff at 3:30pm.
Purchased some large prawns for dinner.
Moored up at about 5pm.
Dinner 8pm.
Saw some bats.
Yamini sang to me. (Yamini would like to point out it was pretty bad but funny).
