Back to the simple life

Back to the West Coast - Kerala. Very hot and humid. Storms overnight. It is very unusual to see clouds like this in fact clouds at all here .. so this is a rare sight. Good to be back to the simple life too. We had news of yet another death yesterday .. our neighbour and dear friend in France - Albert .. I have blipped photos of him before here .. he has not been well for a long time but it is the passing of a very significant era for us and for the community in France...
