A trip to India wouldn’t be complete without a ride in a tuk tuk (plus it’s on ones bucket list) hence today we planned a short round trip whilst taking in the sights of the Santa Cruz Cathedral Basilica and the Mattancherry Palace…
Perhaps one day, India will invest in wheelchair accessible tuk tuks akin to Mobilituks found in Cambodia. We will see…
As today is our last day and one had a little money left over, it was time to head down to the Chinese Fishing Nets to purchase some tat. As we approached said footpath which runs parallel to the Fishing Nets and overlooks the Arabian Sea, an individual in a electric wheelchair (the first one has seen in India) came over for a chat and proceeded to take us on a wander to another viewpoint…
Tomorrow, we head back to good old London Gatwick via Cochin International Airport concluding ones journey across Southern India. Final thoughts will be shared in the next post, however I think we have, ultimately, proved that an individual can travel across Southern India in an electric wheelchair (for the majority) given a little creativity so what is stopping you?
