One of the most splendidly relaxing things we did during our India trip was visit the “backwaters” of Kerala — a series of waterways plied by houseboats, like the one you see in this photo. There’s a bedroom in the “house” with a kitchen at the back, and dinner was partly made from fish and shrimp pulled out of the water less than an hour before they went in the pan. I love being on the water, and while I prefer the sea, there’s a lot to be said for a quiet bit of floating around.
