Ah, its pours generously, without a stop. Makes you feel so wet and helpless if you are a visitor there, but a look around gives you the feeling that this is the main reason which drives the people there. No matter how early you wish to challenge the Poojari of the temple, the 'Deepam' inside the altar will be lit, inspite of the heavy rains outside, as early as 5'o clock in the morning. That gives you a sense of satisfaction, a kind of sacrifice you are making for God, paying a visit resisting the roaring down-pour of rain. Greenery everywhere, streams of water towards the sides of roads tempts you to walk barefoot and be there forever. The beauty is, roads dont get clogged with water or vehicles and shops, schools and offices open as normal as ever.

Hmm...I loved it all... just everything about my hometown, Cochin!
